I'm told they dropped the seat requirements. Yeah $30 is the business rate. No discounts for education. I suspect the backend costs on this are still rather high but should improve once hardware catches up to demand.

Ah. Well as far as I was told two months back, they didn't plan on dropping the E3/E5*300 seat requirements, only the 300 seat of copilot requirements. But I haven't kept on top of it, all my companies clients are too small fish to drop 100-200k a year on unproven tech

From what I'm told, Ms was basically running things at a loss when they first opened the doors.
