Comment the Alliance is targetting bigger fish (Score 1) 110
As the article stated and many have said it's $35K per CPU. How many companies are going to buy NAS
and go get there Debian or Redhat distributions
that they downloaded for free? Probably none.
They are targetting the E-commerce companies.. etrade, first union, C. Schwab, and the likes. They are in business and their primary target is to beat Microsoft and IBM. They don't want to throw money down the toliet on something noone is going to buy. I know everyone here is dying to
throw $35K for an App server :)
Linux is not an E-Commerce solution for companies.
There is nothing wrong with that. Customers like to know they will have support enginners a phone call away.. I'm sure Redhat support and Debian developers would like 24x7 phone duty :)
