I disagree here too. In my experince many clients find out exactly the 
opposite - that they've been sold a huge capacity, 
"dual-clustered-weblogic-on-sun-E999999-boxes-with-replicated-oracle-db 
" setup for a system that could be run on a single decent specced box 
running open source server software for a *miniscule* fraction of the 
price, usually because of the vested interests/commission of the 
software companies they were dealing with.

Nobody should deploy on anything unless they've done realistic tests of 
the system with a realisitic simulation of the expected load. They 
should evaluate JBoss the same as any other server - if it fits their 
needs then they save a packet.
