That was naturally a first thought, but for one, the price per seat is
no longer $50 with SLED, and also, isn't SLED just a bit light on the
desktop apps side of things? I haven't verified, but I got the feeling
it wasn't quite the same.

What they really want is not SLES10, but rather SLEDS10 but at a SLED10
price.
