Veeam is free today. . .

@DustinB3403 I've restored individual files from this backup before without a problem, but I was curious to see how the "bare metal" restore would go, and it did as I expected.
And yes, I'm looking into other options.
-
Not that I solely condone using "free", I prefer to spend wisely.
-
@DustinB3403 We (rest of my colleagues) have been slowly gaining ground in teaching the cost of free to others.
-
@EddieJennings there's free, and there's "free"
-
@MattSpeller I agree.

And then there's "we stole this from microf$$k" so that's close to "free".

Luckily, I don't get encouragement to do that. I'm a stickler for license compliance.

That's a tough one because in some cases, free is expensive. But vendors prey on that. You see this on SW all the time with people claiming free solutions are expensive to support even though they are often cheaper.

Writing 2 guitar solos, got a recording session in an hour... Guitar overdubs and gang vocals. Plus I'm the engineer for the whole album.

Yeah. The point we always try to get a cross is that "free" is an option, but you research more than one vendor for X thing to make sure you needs are met (and other costs are considered).

Taking a break between the convention and Bourbon Street tonight.

Not really shopping, but my mother is retiring down south, and I can use it as an investment property.
Spoke with the bank today and they said it won't be an issue to buy her place.
So I filled out the paperwork and getting submitted tomorrow.
But thank you.
