Usually what's funny about Dilbert is that it's so true. However, this particular comic doesn't match any of my experiences. Indeed, I don't recall ever hearing of a PHB mandating the use of Open Source, while I've heard many stories of PHBs prohibiting it. So I'm curious...
Has your management ever mandated the use of Open Source software? Has your management ever prohibited the use of Open Source software?
