Talk about the cost of ownership of Linux vs. cost of ownership of any
other platform! For servers and clients. I just installed SuSE (personal)
on a desktop, to get the same set of tools for a MS workstation (i.e. all
of the office tools, etc) it would cost over $1500! This one costs $0. It
installs in a zip and looks awesome! And does not require a very powerful
machine to run, unlike Windoze. Everything boils down to lower costs.
