How big do you have to be before MSFT starts to care? When I checked a few years ago, for my current employer (120 people, ~ 75 computers), we were too small to have any negotiating leverage. MSFT told us to call a reseller (e.g., Dell, CDW). Reseller quotes their standard price. :-( On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 5:30 PM, Tim Vander Kooi <tvanderk...@expl.com> wrote: > [Software Assurance] also makes a great deal of sense when you > have an EA or similar since they basically throw the Client OS > licenses and SA in for free.
