Monica Lochner-Fischer, SPD candidate in Munich, has placed posters which say in large letters: "More Linux - More Freedom". An essay from her website, entitled "David versus Goliath", shows that she understands the issues. In addition to the observation that Microsoft has so dominated the operating system market that virutally no one knows that there are alternatives, she says "The decision of the city of Munich [to switch to Linux] was thus a decision for more liberty with the selection of manufacturers, suppliers and programs, for more jobs and job security in Munich and Bavaria, and for more competition on the software market."
