what is MSCE?

I have to tell you that I don't agree with your choices as reasons on
this or the last survey. This survey should include things like...

- lack of local support firms/technicians
- lack of trust / familiarity
- lack of workgroup shared mail/calendar/contacts application
- no one on staff knowledgable about maintaining server
