Remember that Microsoft lie:
Microsoft maintained that the operating systems themselves were,
"two very different products intended for two very different
functions."
It is curious that your refuge from being just another magpie is to
act as a dull techno-dweeb! NT WS and Server were far different in
terms of licensing, just as a DVD of a motion picture sold to the
personal media market is far different than the same thing licensed
for commercial viewing. The supplier is entitled to receive the
beneficial value of their intellectual. property product, as
guaranteed by the copyright laws. With Windows it is valuable to
client system users as well as server operators. The techno-dweebs
try to ignore the law except when they want to argue about the silly
GPL. They never seem to see the big picture.
The cola dweebs conveniently - but very dishonestly - pretend to forget
RedHat, Novell, Mandriva and Xandros "lies" about their various desktop and
server versions of Linux, and the different licensing and pricing
structures, and in some cases the artificial limitations of the lower-end
versions.
No we don't its just the umbrella of Linux is so vast that we have
choice. Can that be said for your Redmond platform?
