Why would anyone who is forced by .gov.uk to invite a MS employee onto 
thier board willing use Sun technology when they have a chance to 
lock-in us into MS tech?

The only way to vote is with your feet.
I for one will not be renewing the TV licence this year - the TV will
be sold/stuffed into the attic until the BBC decide they want me as a 
customer.

The cost will be purchase/download of more TV programming via the Net
or DVD but that is the only way to obtain 50% of what we watch already 
so loss of direct BBC programming is not a big loss.
