Lets not forget that M$'s Small Business Server is $1500 for : 5 user NT Server 5 user SQL 5 user Exchange 5 user Proxy 1.0 and other goodies And 25 user is $2500. Thats the limit, then traditional pricing starts. Sorry but BillG is going to get the low end of the market while Informix continues to study the Linux opportunity and want the business case presented on a silver platter. Have started development of my vertical in this package - would have preferred Informix but the progress in this segment seems very very slow.
