So $199 for Windows 7 Pro, plus $100 for the $100 for the software. Now if there a Unix/Linux shop, give them 2-4 hours to setup the windows VM and appropriate firewall settings, etc. A couple of hours to properly work out how to use the software and the few hours a year of administration for the Windows box and organizing backups, etc (I'm feeling generous towards Windows today).
So how many man hours is that worth? I wouldn't say he is over estimating... -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Bob Rasmussen Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 7:41 AM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] Code 128 Soft Font Print Wizard will run quite nicely on a $300 netbook.
