LA City Council dumping Outlook for Gmail

Awsome!

The LA City Council just awarded Google a 7 million dollar contract to dump Exchange and to start using Google Mail and Calendar.

This is the best quote, ever!

“ the new contract would save the city some $5 million in service costs over five years, in addition to allowing the city’s technology department to shed nine positions.”

Now I’m never happy to see someone lose their job! But we know what these 9 guys were doing all day, removing virus’ and repairing infected computers! (Because even if you have anti-everything protection, new virus’s come out all the time, large companies can not keep up with the antidotes! Go buy a Mac already!)

Its a sign of the times for Microsoft, who just launched their new OS and are already losing a major city’s support for their email system.

Da na na na, da na na na, hey hey hey, good bye Microsoft!
