They also have a mound of debt and no end in sight.  In addition,
their services can be problematic at times.  For instance, the
CVS servers were almost completely unusable from oh about April
until just recently.

I really think VA Software isn't going to be around much more
and when they die what happens to SF?  I'm not sure I'd
want to trust my project these days on something like that. :-/

But, you're right, the price is nice.

Cheers,
Tanner
