[ Trying to put some classiccmp spin on the discussion... ] This reminds me of my biggest complaint about several commercial Unix offerings in the early 90's - user licensing. "Excuse me, I can only have X users on my Vax/Alpha?" Alright, maybe some other non-Unix OSes as well ;^) The analogy was always to Ford/GM saying, "Yes, you bought our biggest van with the third row seat, but you may only use the the front two bucket seats until you pay us Y dollars per year." Definitely led me to move to systems that didn't have such silly encumbrances. --Steve.
