Some sales-twerp called me here at my university office, trying to sell a
bundled "anti-spam, anti-virus, and email solution" for the campus.  Turns
out to be a winsucks 2k server (which the campus has an enterprise license
for) running McAfee antivirus (which we already have a campus-wide license
for), some antispam tool I didn't even ask about, and M$ Exchange Server
(also on the campus license agreement if we were foolish enough to run it)
for pity's sake.

After being told that my Linux / Postfix / ClamAV / SpamAssassin / Postfix
sandwich not only was free, scaled to a load of clients more than Exchange
ever would, and didn't crash.... well, he hung up.  Didn't even say
goodbye, imagine that.
