Yeah, I get the whole 6 of one argument, but I was thinking more along the lines of: you don't /have/ to pay for support. I don't think jboss or redhat restrict what's available to the general public. ( I don't know really, it's been a while since I used stuff besides fedora or centOS or whatnot. SuSE, at least when we were paying for it, was selling support, not the OS itself- & we payed from the heart ;) I like the idea of four dudes throwing a bunch of cheap hardware together and creating some cool thing- why not make it easy to make things better for everyone? Give those heads who have only gumption and know-how a freaking chance- a niche, if you will. Of course it's really a dozen of this or a dozen of that in the end- but one's a baker's dozen! =-P __ I don't mean to come across like I know what I'm talking about, there could be huge factors I'm not considering, etc.. Like I've said before- it's fun to watch it all unfold =] PS- you still gotta pay for that hardware somehow, and traffic, so no matter what, "it" costs. Perhaps in the long view there is not as much difference as one would think.
