Yes, I hear that here too negotiations between Oracle and Canada are tough...  

I don't know if Microsoft negotiates -- do they negotiate?  

Usually it seems to me managers just buy Microsoft boxes one at a time, without worrying too much about the overall costs and interoperability.  

Just curious if there are negotiations like this between Microsoft and the state governments, for example.
