I am far from an expert on Romania, but would guess there are two more factors?

- Lack of trust in the society, which ought to generate a cynical attitude. It is the parameter which seems most different from [Edit: West European] countries. I assume this is both from the communist history (secret police etc) and that the present politicians are more or less the same thieves as before 1989.

- A Microsoft domination in the infrastructure. Open source seems more prevalent on Linux/BSD/et al.
