Entire countries are wanting to switch to Linux; but it is quite difficult to change, if they are already accustomed to Windows.

For a country which doesn't yet have much computer technology - and I think Iraq might be in this category - it might be just as easy to adapt to Linux, as to Windows.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
