I don't get what gets into these knowledge challenged bloggers.
Linux is free as in freedom not price to an enterprise.
If its a cost issue, enterprise Linux has lower cost than micoshaft.
Micoshaft likes to think they are cheap.
Only if you believe Santa Claus will refund you the difference

Micoshaft likes to think they can prove they cost less than Linux.
Only if you believe their comparisons and graphs and
willfully ignored corporate Linux comparisons and graphs.
