- at least for Denmark, let me tell you otherwise....

Ok, I only know about the USA. Most companies here are required to have
auditors and very frequently that company handles the taxes in
conjunction with the internal accounting dept.

Sort of. Most larger organizations (>500 employees) use ERP packages and
not straight-up accounting packages. ERP packages are usually
specialized to the industry and there are numerous ERP systems that run
on LINUX / UNIX [Oracle's entire stack, for example as well as numerous
COBOL systems, Irium, and Open Source ERPs like OpenBravo or OpenERP].
There are numerous options for medium sized businesses.

MS is completely DOMINANT with Navision/Dynamics (former Navigator) in
this country.

Here in the US rust-belt I've never seen an install of Navision.
