Oddly, the cost of a Automated Killing Machine would probably be more than the cost of a human solider. I guessing that a Automated Killing Machine will cost as least a quarter of a million to buy. A solders training costs around ten times less than that. Also any windows, children's maintenance after wards would likely be less than the cost of a new machine.

Microsoft Interested In More Linux Deals 256

eldavojohn writes "Microsoft has announced that it would be open to more deals similar to the one it just made with Novell. 'We will love to put that kind of agreement in place with anyone who distributes Linux software, Red Hat, whoever else,' Steve Ballmer told India's Economic Times. Considering the recent reactions to the Microsoft Novell deal, it would be interesting to see who else takes them up on the offer. Novell is due to receive USD $348 million in up-front payments. Will Red Hat cash out on this offer if it feels the impending pressure from Oracle's Linux? Will non-profit Linux distributions attempt to make deals with Microsoft?"
