Is that 10x the cost of the same SAS modules on Windows NT/2k Server
(i.e. multiuser) or
10x the cost of the same SAS modules on Windows NT/2k
Workstation/Professional (i.e.
single user)? Here in Australia, SAS modules for Windows NT/2k Server
(i.e. multiuser) are
about 3-4x the cost of the same SAS modules for Windows NT/2k
Workstation/Professional (i.e.
single user). Are you saying that SAS for Linux (i.e multiuser) costs
even more than SAS for
Windows NT/2k Server (i.e. multiuser)?
AFAIK, there is no version of SAS for Linux (i.e. single user) because
Linux doesn't make
arbitrary, marketing-driven distinctions between single-user and
multi-user systems.
