Think of this scenario. You have a Web site that is accessed by over 100 users at a give time. You would have to have at least $44,000 worth of licenses to handle that load versus just around 6 to 10 web shares with RedBack.
I strongly disagree. Each Web transaction is a finite batch request and this situation is essentially no different than having fewer licenses than the total number of people in your office or having a U2 session kicked-off in response to files being placed in a directory. There is no concurrency, as modern as the web is, it's really just back to 70's batch mode with a different dialect of roff/troff.
We have not found a lot of companies running Web sites that want to gamble that IBM is not going to catch them.
We as in who? It's hard to tell with the Hotmail address and the lack of a signature. Just because you've not encountered any, that doesn't mean they don't exist in large numbers. Datatel has well over 600 colleges using their Web Advisor product (It's very likely higher now, that number is about two years old); Aptron has all of their universities; we have our customer base; Via Systems, Pixius, Sierra Bravo, etc. have their U2 customers; Application developers like Innovative Software Solutions, Key Data, Autopower, etc. have their customers -- The list goes on. There are a very large number of U2 users that have gone non-Redback routes.
