I don't mind paying $25/year/desktop nearly as much as I mind the twenty clicks to find out the $25 is an annual fee. Look at it: https://ubuntu.com/pricing/pro https://ubuntu.com/pricing/pro Whoever did this web design should be shot. I had to go partway through placing an order to find out this is an annual (as opposed to monthly, quarterly, or lifetime) fee. I still have no idea which fees are per-machine, and which are one-time. The server pricing is messed up too: (1) I would never pay $225/year for my nano instances. (2) I have no idea how to count licenses in my cloud, where servers spin up and down all the time in response to load. (3) I'd pay a lot more for uber-large instances (if I were currently using them, which I'm currently not). The server pricing ought to just take a flat cut of my EC2 costs. I'd gladly pay Ubuntu a flat markup.

Yes, I can't work out if this is free for virtual servers?? Would imagine not, but what applies then?

> Whoever did this web design should be shot. I think this kind of wording should not be normalized on this website, and asking for someone to be shot is a gross exaggeration. The amount of disrespect for the developers, designers and victims and families of those affected by gun violence (including women affected by domestic violence). I suggest you expand your lexicon in the future and use the appropriate choice of words.

What a mess indeed. I did manage to find this: > Priced for the cloud > Ubuntu Pro pricing tracks the underlying EC2 cost, starting at 20% for the smallest t3.nano instances, and ramping down to less than 1%. That probably means it’ll be in the AWS Marketplace and will factor in to your instance rate. For example: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-uy7jg4dds3qjw https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-uy7jg4dds3qjw
