Tax-deducted != free. Next question?

Seriously, if your company is paying an effective tax rate of 2% of its 
turnover, tax-deductability only improves the value of a potential 
purchase by around 2%. Point out that FOSS is 100% tax deductible as 
well, and does less damage to the balance of trade.
