I'd have $200 more if I'd used open-source.
Since we seems to be talking about Windows development, its probably cheaper to pay for Visual Studio then to supply your developers with an open source tool chain, man hours = expensive...

Easy, stop wasting energy. Governments are too relaxed about "standby modes" on devices and general consumption. I bet you can "find" 10 Nuclear plants within the general consumptions if you wanted.
One way to make your old car run better is to look up the price of a new model.
