<\/a>“As 2007 rolls in, millions of Americans will have to make what looks like a momentous technical decision: Should they upgrade to the latest version of Microsoft Windows? At the same time, legislators and election boards will be pondering a far more important decision: Do we want Microsoft Windows – or any operating system – running elections?” asks Mike Hemowitz of the Baltimore Sun.
