This is a gigantic burn to them, something the SF Muni IT
themselves likely can't handle recovery in any mass scale
themselves (being probably just run of the mill underpaid
government windoze admins). No one really knows how

alone now they can't even collect what they should thanks to
every windows system letting itself be owned.
I'm really interested to see what comes of this. It should
be a foreboding tale of things to come for others.

business|house|government|life built on Microsoft
technology?
