I am doing that exactly right now. For dollars only, I compared quotes for
Novell products to Microsoft quotes from our standard vendor(s). You may wish
to include costs for speciality servers (Zen/SCCM), as well as hours for
migration and migration tools. I don't know if Microsoft has the Novell
equivalent of a VLA or MLA, but you could purchase your licenses with software
assurance.

Greetings to all...
I work at an educational institution that is on Novell and is examining the
licensing costs and options and comparing these costs with making the switch to
Microsoft. I'd prefer not to go to the lengths of contacting our reseller at
this time, or opening up a can of worms that we are indeed planning to make
the move. I'm curious however about the ballpark price for a Microsoft Campus
Agreement...we have about 6000 combined faculty and students, so I assume that
would be the number to work with. I'm also curious about what all a Campus
Agreement includes.
I thought maybe some of you out there had dealt with this before and could give
me some feedback.
Thanks,
MM
