Comment What's with the complaining? (Score 5) 131

So far every post I've read has been a complaint about a $2000 "free operating system". You're NOT paying for the OS, you ARE paying for a year of support.

Straight from the news item:

Support: A one year support package that includes standard hours installation and configuration assistance and 24x7 server-down support for two Linux Routers of a Piranha cluster, configuration of Piranha and Linux Virtual Server and any services required to run these applications, including httpd and ftpd, and configuration of Piranha and Linux Virtual Server for connectivity to one node behind the Linux Routers for either httpd or ftpd service.

For a business or organization, $2000 really isn't that much, especially when it gives management the right to point the finger at another company when something goes wrong...hence the importance of "Tech Support".

Please, if you don't like Linux, that's fine, but don't try to troll your way to infamy.
