I rather like this :-

*QUOTE*

The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) says FOSS has the following
strategic benefits -- 

(1) developing local capacity/industry; 

(2) reducing imports/conserving foreign exchange; 

(3) enhancing national security; 

(4) reducing copyright infringements; 

(5) enabling localization; 

(6) increasing competition; 

(7) reducing total cost of ownership; and 

(8) achieving vendor independence -- for which reasons the French parliament
and entire French police force have junked Microsoft and are now migrating
to FOSS, just like so many other governments in the world.
