Not really. I worked there. We had no budget issues. The dismissal was political.

The issue was propaganda. There are even rumors that Dieter Reiter told someone that he regretted moving away from LiMux after he had to pay so much money for IT.

Depends on how one judges the state of equipment - I remember my private laptop having 4x the RAM than the city's computer... or my school's MuSiN computers running on win2k (!) until at the very least 2012. If that isn't a budget problem, I really really don't know what else could be one.

Reiter regretting something, now that might be a first for him

Anyway nice to see (or rather: read) you again!
