Brand new seller launching on Amazon selling a $1500 laptop for $200... nope, that's not a scam LOL

And no risk with the pricing bouncing up and down, either.

Hey!! Good morning people.. I'm doing good now and preparing going to work. Thanks to Vodka last night.

Vodka makes everything better

What about another container technology like OpenVZ or LXE?

Now I just need a machine with M2 to put it in!

Cool for sure!

Because of Linux, not the hardware

Just sad.

What's funny is I receive the email today, but the website says that yesterday is the day they are deleting the free accounts.

Surprise!

Two hundred calls is not that many. 200x2 is 400 hours of calls, max. That's 24,000 minutes. First call rate that I found is $.89/min. So that could be around $22K. But only if their PBX allowed 200 simultaneous calls and all of them ran the full duration of the two hours.

If this was loads of normal calls of a few minutes, how much was this bill really?

Sounds like most large businesses will just pay for upgrade rights, probably cheaper on a machine by machine basis. And way easier to track.

Wow, this really is major news. I'll third that this might be the IT announcement of the year.

Looks like this got covered. Licensing is only needed for warm and hot spares, not cold ones.

That's pretty impressive. I wonder how long before usable gear is available on the street. And what prices are going to be like.

Happy Anniversary, congratulations.

Glad to hear that you are alright yourself, at least.

I hope some big names, like SuperMicro, take this seriously and get something in our hands soon. This would be perfect for two socket 1U servers or some tiny blade units (those SM deals with four blades in a 2U kind of thing.)
