  1. Assurance on Why are Businesses Willing to Spend More for Software? · · Score: 1

    I think a business is willing to spend a lot of money for a "warranty".

    I mean, a manager need a warranty that a project
    will be completed in time and will do the work;
    he could spend a lot of money to get this warranty.

    So he is not paying for the quality, or for the
    men hours spent on the project: he is really
    paying for the warranty (in the broadest sense).

    I'm not surprised that a lot of money can
    be spent on software.

    That's the way I usually ask (a lot of) money for
    GPL software to my customers. We basically
    work as an assurance company.

  2. Re:huh? on 386 Based Linux Powered Telephone · · Score: 1

    I'm italian, and I read all the website
    without the need of babelfish. It seems
    to me that they are using Windows CE,
    and not Linux. Probably they have switched
    to Windows, since in June they announced
    that they were using Linux.
