Christopher and Ivan,

yes I know the place, in fact I am asking here among friends to avoid that
madness: one buys a box with free fw updates, then a company takeover
happens and updates+old files suddenly become something to pay for... this
is just unacceptable.

As far as I know fewer and fewer people besides very large entities are
buying oracle stuff lately. This policy is hurting their sales a lot, way
more than their nonsense prices. Dell and HP are opening champagne bottles,
but this is hurting sparc64 platform.

Dunno if this same applies with Fujitsu M machines, but, anyway, they don't
sport ldoms.
