Proprietary software? Counsel objects

The problem I find when dealing with Lawyer type customers in my Linux Support business is that there are no alternatives to some of their proprietary legal applications they use. I have researched it extensively and they have no choice but to stick with Windows, and I have no choice but to pass them on to a Windows based IT support company.

I lose a client, they don't gain any security benefits. The only winner is the Windows support provider who takes on the job and gets the regular calls due to a wonderfully unstable and un-secure operating system.
