The problem is simple math.

$60 avg box set.. 20 people 60x20 = $1200.  One copy Advanced Server I
think goes for over $1200.  I know several companies that have bought
server copies of Advanced Server.

Point... It takes a LOT more effort to make money selling it one box at
a time.  Even joe drug dealer on the corner gets this concept. :)
