[HLUG] Times are a changing.

Hi,

The virtual server is free, but the licenses for the operating aren't.

To be honest I was surprised when they were charging so much for the
software in the first place.

Hello,

Just a small snippet that might be of interest.

"Today Microsoft announced that Virtual Server 2005 R2 is now available as a
free download. This also will apply to the forthcoming service pack 1 of
Virtual Server 2005 R2. In addition, Microsoft announced the availability of
virtual machine add-ins for Linux and a technical product support model for
Linux guest operating systems running on Virtual Server 2005 R2."
