Don't get me started... had a staff member who needed Red Hat for work, so I instructed him NOT to download it and bought the distro for $20 on DVD, delivered next day.

Guess what. He decided he knew better and downloaded it, which cost over $200 in metered bandwidth. Then he had the gall to deny it.

Grrr.

Re the Redhat Im talking seriously early days here when broadband was newish and sorta before torrents etc.

What you actually paid the $20 for was the tools and manual but it was in short a nice neat little package put together in the time of Shareware on floppy sold at swapmeets lol
