I really don't think you want to know how much bucks. For commercial
grade software???? BIG BUCKS!!
I don't think I'd say BIG BUCKS... We're in the process of porting our
servers (ega, vga, svga, 8514, TIGA, Microfield, TARGA,...) over to BSD. I
can't give you a schedule or price just yet. But as it will be a
server only release it will be significantly cheaper than our normal
X runtime package price of $299.00. (Not counting Xv real-time video
in a window support... :-)
