Quote: "On the other hand, as Microsoft points out, TCO does not depend only upon start-up costs. If a system crashes, or needs upgrading, or is wanted to do something different — this all costs too. Windows is arguably a cheaper option on that front."
You mean to say that troubleshooting and/or recovering and/or migrating and/or overturning a Windows environment is cheaper then anything else out there? Do you even have actual real-life experience with various environments under such conditions?
One of the biggest points against Windows environments is that they are hell to troubleshoot, to recover, to migrate and to overturn when compared to other environments. Unless you believe what the nice wizard screen tells you ofcourse.
