I got a real kick out of this one comment:
{So they're going to try to beat us up on total cost of ownership! Well, it
was all pretty sane up to that point; it's nice to know our opponents are
still smoking crack about some key issues. Or have they simply escaped
noticing that the worst customer revolt they're dealing with is over the
TCO implications of the new XP licensing scheme?}
Considering MS built their customer base by being the cheaper solution
(remember the price comparisons about NT vs Netware?) this is going to be a
really funny one to see MS argue. They have already trained their customer
base to see things the way that makes initial cost more important.
