I've seen a parallel issue on the Microsoft side. Initially organizations tend to be reluctant to apply patches. "We're not going to be affected by that". Then you have a day where a virus rips through the desktops and servers throughout the organization, the administrators stay all night fighting the battle, and suddenly management is much more receptive to slapping patches on, formalities be damned.
