Making my wife use it...
My wife traditionally balances our joint checkbook with pen and paper and uses online banking. I never thought about it much but my rep had me find out what web server the bank was using. When I found out it was WebSphere, I told her she could no longer use the online banking application. My rep then demanded she use the Accounting Express package. I had MCS come out to the house and deploy the package via the SMS 2003 network I deployed in the house. Of course, I control most of the money in the house and leave only the bare minimum for daily expenses. We are 100% invested in Microsoft and I have seen my wealth grow at about 1% per annum for the last 8 years!
