Pretty aggressive maintenance pricing:
"Annual maintenance subscriptions will cost $175 per single-CPU server and
$269 for a dual CPU subscription."
That's *way* cheap. Insofar as I had to look at Microsoft's latest TCO FUD,
you couldn't put Windows on a PowerEdge server for 10 times that price. So
put that in your pipe and smoke it.
