Which Windows Server license would cost $400? 10 licenses don't qualify for any discount and the lowest I've seen so far was $699-$799 for Windows 2000 Server (Advanced goes for 3K+)
"The main reason for choosing Open Source software was:
- Licensing Cost for Server Software
- Openness, i.e. the ability to change software to fit our purpose
- Security & Reliability and (last not least)
- Low hardware requirements.
What about your time? Are you in charge of a budget? Any customizations (#2 in your list) - are they included in that budget? Maintenance moving down the road - who will be doing it?
