I like this from the article...

In 2007 the Gendarmerie decided to replace even the desktop operating 
system. Guimard: "Moving from Microsoft XP to Vista would not have 
brought us many advantages and Microsoft said it would require training 
of users. Moving from XP to Ubuntu, however, proved very easy. The two 
biggest differences are the icons and the games. *Games are not our 
priority.*"
