That does sound pretty expensive. I almost did something like this, a few years back, but it wasn't gonna be a business, it was basically gona be an open to the public collection, free for use, and based on donations. I had a big plan, heh heh. It would have had a room for console games, one for computers, another for documentation and other paper publications and another for a big screen tv and different video players from across the times. When I mean public, I mean you come to me, I would have approved or disapporoved and led you through. I nver got to do it so it's moot, but it would have been a neat thing to do. And the turnouot would have been pretty low.
The licensing of freeware for businesses is another thing. Like, if someone wanted to use AVG antivirus or zonealarm to protect everything in a business, regardless of what it's protecting, it has to be paid for. Let alone operating systems and applications. Sounds *real* expensive.
