Sunbelt will be interested in this, and maybe you too: http://www.zdnetasia.com/whitepaper/when-free-is-not-free-hidden-costs-in-mi crosoft-security-solutions_wp-1021019.htm What jumped out at me: "Microsoft customers interviewed for our research reported that getting premium support for the Forefront security solutions to resolve issues on a timely basis required them to upgrade their support contract for all of the products bundled in ECAL, it could not be broken out separately." However it does have a pretty strong anti-Microsoft slant to it, which always makes me suspicious. Still, it has points to consider.
