City may get free Microsoft makeover | |

In a move that the city's chief technology officer said will make New Orleans a "city of the future," Mayor Ray Nagin has entered a preliminary agreement with Microsoft to update computer systems for City Hall and the Police Department free of charge. The only requirement the computer giant has made of the city is that New Orleans let Microsoft use it as a model for marketing the system to other governmental bodies once it is up and running, said Greg Meffert, the city's technology officer. Eventually, he added, the city will have to purchase software from the company, but he said it would be a "minuscule" expense. | ||
