I was at a presentation today by some top dogs in the Governors Office and
the Public Service Commission where they announced that bills have been
passed which will make it more attractive for broadband providers to invest

in infrastructure in Michigan.

The most significant part of this presentation was when they were trying to

get the Windows laptop and the projector working for the powerpoint
presentation, the laptop kept trying to boot into safe mode, and they had
to
call someone on a cell phone for help to get a Windows machine going.  In
front of 500 people!  *** :^p

Maybe we need to start lobbying for open source in state government!
