I just called into Microsoft to see what the hotfix cost for windows
2000 & Exchange 2000. They told me it was $4000 for the hotfix. If
that wasn't bad enough the salesperson told me when this initially hit
they were charging $40,000 for the retro fixes. Then they wonder why
there are so many anti-microsoft people out there.
Yikes!
