Part of the issue is outsourcing; Comapnies have effectively outsourced a good chunk of thier IT infrastructure to Microsoft.
Now, as demonstrated, it turns out that relying on other people's computers to manage yours has a very obvious failstate. But moving things in-house means additional costs, as you need expertise to manage your now in-house resources.
And the moment you start saying 'this is going to cost us extra money', the MBAs start shrieking hysterically and make excuses about how Microsoft is the cheaper option in the long run.
