Will Brazil start the downfall of Microsoft??

The story that almost everyone knows is the story of David and Goliath, everyone knows how little David defeated the mighty Goliath. We might be seeing the start of another story similar to it starting in Brazil. According to the New York Times, Brazil is starting a program that will try to offer computers with only free software, including the operating system, handpicked by the government instead of giving consumers the option of paying more for, say, a basic edition of Microsoft Windows. The projects objective is to allow almost all Brazilians to afford to own a computer. The Government has also instructed government ministries and state-run companies to gradually switch from costly operating systems made by Microsoft and others to free operating systems, like Linux. The President says that this will save the government a lot of money. What will happen if this program works in Brazil? Will it be the start of a downfall for Microsoft?
Many countries are putting up a fight with the Microsoft monopoly, but no country has taken such drastic measure as Brazil. I believe that if this works we will see a drastic change in how governments will spend their taxpayer’s money when looking for operating systems and other software. I find it rather amusing that a so called developing country is the one that makes the first move to cut legs from under the Microsoft Monopoly.
Microsoft has been able to fight of every attack that a government and government unions have made on them. But finally we might witness an attack that Microsoft won’t be able to fight of. What might and hopefully will happen is that other countries will follow in Brazils footsteps, and what we might see is a fall in the price of Microsoft products.
