you call £187.50+ reasonable! (linuxemporium are flogging it for £255, and the old version at that!) I need to sell some of my junk on to you! ;)
Okay Adam I'll give you £30 for the Vaio and £25 for the Zarus. :-) BJ ducks and runs <G>
I was thinking in the terms of what your average commercial software user has to shell out for apps. such as £400+ for Acrobat writer or whatever the extorsionate cost of Photoshop is and the mind numbing price of Autocad. £255 doesn't seem too steep when you compare with those and they do do an educational licence. However my point was that it isn't "Free" for that you have to look at bochs which still needs loads of work before it comes close to VMWare but give it time and the OS community developers working on it will I'm sure weave their magic and we will then have a "Free" alternative.
