Economic terrorism? Have you been watching Max Keiser, Jeffrey?lol. Have to agree with you re: the DoJ and who they selectively target. Blankfiend and his friends will not appear on any charges of substance. Though Wells Fargo did get found out laundering Mexican drug money. How much influence does Buffet have? Influence is the mother of necessity. Can you say 'we don't need no Charlie Munger let the mother.....'

The US Department of Justice would probably have a fit*. I think MS side stepped it by buying into Comcast years ago. * Its hard to tell what will draw the ire of DoJ. Economic terrorism (US Financial Industry) appears OK. Anti-competitive practices, such as controlling both the hardware and software (Apple), appears OK. But bundling a browser with the OS (Microsoft) is out of bounds. And gaming TicketMaster's system (WiseGuy Tickets) will get a PATRIOT Act like response.

Windows looks good value to begin with, but as the number grow... One place I worked had thousands of tills that connected for updates. We ended up by processor-based licenses for the servers instead. On 28 September 2010 19:37, Ivan Carlos <icarlos () icarlos net> wrote:Its something wrong there.

Cals are needed if you access any kind of service hosted within a windows server platform. Consider it like a bubble within a bubble. The outer bubble is windows server and the innwr the 3rd party software. While they have nothing linking them, you still need to go through the outer shell. I do think that you chould purchase a corecal for all clients. This covers any windows server and windows based services.Pretty nice business model, ain't it? First you pay for a server, and then you pay *again* so you can actually use the server that you already paid for. It never ceases to amaze me how customers put up with that.
