Actually, all of the machines that Linux Networx installs run either RH or SLES. I happen to know that #17 is running Red Hat.
I think there are more of us than there are Stallmanites. I also know of one other FReeper that uses the machine in #17.
The price I quoted is as stated on the Microsoft site for volume licensing of WCCS. I guess we can't trust Microsoft?
The Red Hat price I gave of $274 is the lowest I saw, and thats still PER YEAR pricing.
I see you still haven't figured it out. As usual you are woefully ignorant of the subjects on which you post. And I refuse to educate you this time, I don't get paid enough. Besides, you failed the previous classes due to an inability to learn.
The basic premise is correct, although the facts are off as usual. My point was why pay for Windows, so there's a valid point of why pay for Red Hat either.
That’s an open market license, the highest there is. Volume discounts get it down as low as $150 per system according to CDW. You’re the one who obviously doesn’t have a clue LOL.
Your points are faulty, like always. You should just go back to your Windows programming terminal since you don't have a clue about large scale licensing or support.
Swing and a miss. You still haven't a clue. Do you need a hint?
You can't even realize when I'm defending you, can you?

You talk in so many circles there’s never any telling what will come out. The only thing I ever see that’s consistent is your defense of green party whackos and communists. And attacks on Christians and Republicans, of course.
Grasping at thin air. Getting colder...
Don't get me started... When I bought my first computer, it was an Altos 586. I bought it used in 1986 for $1000. It ran Altos XENIX, and had 1MB RAM, 5 serial ports (they threw in 2 Altos II serial terminals), a 10MHz 8086 (not an 8088) processor, and a 10 MEGAbyte hard drive, that I replaced with a 40MB drive - I bought the drive used for $1000! The computer that I'm using at this moment has more than 400GB of drive space, and I've got a couple of 500GB external drives (and 3 250GB external drives) that I use for archival purposes.)

Long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ... I had the opportunity to meet Seymour Cray. Great fellow.
BTW, WTF is up with Stallman this time? I just read he’s going to be “unveiling” the GPL3 on a live video stream on Friday. Thinking that he can steal some thunder from Apple on that day, or trying to ride on Apple’s coattails?
I think somebody forgot his meds.
You're making me jealous. I have a friend who met Admiral Grace Hopper, and I was jealous then, too.
LOL there’s obviously a better chance of you watching your hero Stallman on Friday than getting an iPhone. You defend him and Russian hackers who crack Apple’s OSX to run on cheap PC’s constantly, what’s your hacker plan for running the cellphone version of OSX on some Linux phone?
A person who believes in principles may seem confusing to one such as you who goes by situational ethics.
Wow, you finally got something right! I don't want a cell phone, and Stallman may just be good for a few laughts.
whats your hacker plan for running the cellphone version of OSX on some Linux phone
Maybe I plan to buy one and then hack the lock-in so that it will run on Sprint instead of AT&T. What does your high-and-mighty anti-hacking crusade have to say about that?
LOL you have principles all right they’re just all leftist, from copyleft vs. copyright to free software for the world to “the 180 day rule for criminal prosecution” defense for Russian hackers. Not to mention the endless attacks on Christians and Republicans, you’re real principled all right LMAO.
I knew who he was - because I was casually introduced to him. We chatted about silly things. (At the time this conversation was taking place, I was living in Australia - he was in the country on a visit). I asked him what brought him to Australia (I specifically wanted a non-computer reason for the visit.). I remember like it was yesterday -- he said: "turtles -- I've come to see your turtles." (Apparently his hobby was the study of turtles.)
I remember howling with laughter and spontaneously blurted out (totally uncensored) "What are you, some kind of idiot? Its marsupials this country has, not turtles."
I remember my host cringing when I asked if Seymour were an idiot (to his face), and I remember Seymour throwing his head back and laughing and laughing -- deep, deep belly laughs. I guess no one had ever dared to call him an idiot to his face. I didn't mean it -- it just came out -- but he was stupid -- come on -- turtles -- Australia? Kangas, yes, but turtles.
It ended up being a very funny evening.
