A thread died for this
I spend more than that on almost every gun I buy.
How poor are you?
You would only buy that if you are going to use it to make money though right
>>60548964
Gee if only there were a free operating system that was great for servers and let you have as many clients as your network could handle.

OSX isn't really free though, you have to overpay for the hardware to get the OS.
Literally why would anyone need that if they dont own a business?

Wow, so expensive, it costs $0!!
>>60549190
Stop right there.
Support is expensive, news at 5
Only $250 each for enterprise-grade software
Seems like a great deal to me
>>60549239
"""support"""
Literally have to buy license/cores not based on cpu-s. Only AD laden idiots need WS these days anyway.

Not to mention how expensive abomination is the Azure.

What a load of crap
>>60549498
Loads of businesses do it.
What they do is get the software illegally.
When they are making money, they buy it legit.
If they don't make money, they fuck off and find / create a new job.
Sometimes they don't even buy it legit, more so if they are only using it on offline machines or LAN-only network rules that ban them from the outside world, but allow other (newer) hardware access to the internet.
Funnily I knew a computer shop that pirated their shit and ended up dead, not because they got caught, because they were in a dying town.
God damn that town was fucking spooky.
I went there for college and in the space of 2 years, half the town-center was dead and boarded up. It was like stepping through a fucking portal to another timeline all of a sudden.
Said college, the lecturers also pirated TV shows too, we all used to talk about the latest LOST episodes and such. (even played LOST: The game, which you also lost)

Pics. Am interested.
It's free if you have a student email
Every company I know uses Windows servers.
No company I know knows how to properly operate them.
Can't you buy a cheaper key elsewhere?
>>60549099
Well quality is expensive
you're not supposed to buy it op
>>60548964
> muh cloud
Magic word to cast moar moneyz
>>60548964
It is a lot of money but if you are running a healthy business, paying 5 quality people to work for you with all of the expectations of a real job (basic benefits, taxes, unemployment), then that is easily worth the price of not having to worry about getting caught pirating, and getting regular updates and support. On top of that, most software marketed to businesses runs on windows servers and that's just how it goes.
Now if you have software developers on staff, yeah, pay them to develop better software for linux, that's what the major players do.

Where do you learn to properly operate it?
