Like Munich, the German state of Lower Saxony has decided that it too will migrate thousands of official computers away from Linux to Microsoft's Windows. The 13,000 workstations running OpenSuse will be transitioned to a "current version" of Windows, which probably means Windows 10.
The authority reasons that many of its field workers and telephone support services already use Windows, so standardization makes sense. An upgrade of some kind would in any case be necessary soon, as the PCs are running OpenSuse versions 12.2 and 13.2, neither of which is supported anymore.
