I agree that makes it worse, but if indeed it'd cost similar at a large private company, it's not clear how we'd expect the government to do better. If the private sector can't manage to bring down costs on enterprise software, why would the government be able to get a better deal than they could?
I would be interested in how software for large organizations, public or private, could suck less. A handful of startups have attempted to disrupt enterprise markets, but the going seems tough.
