I dream that this will happen in other european countries as well. I am not that optimistic to dream that it will happen in Italy too

Didn't they do this like 20 years ago, and return to Microsoft?

Going to be an interesting case study. I wish them the best, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm all for governments saving money, and hopefully this will spread.
