Now that I disagree with you in entirety because I personally was quoted extra by ThePlanet for Windows based servers last year. So you are incorrect in saying "its how stuff work for the most part" because it isn't.
On a ratio, the number of DCs charging extra for Windows Licenses do outweigh those who merge costs like this. Its an old marketing trick that looks like its caught on in the Webhosting world because I personally wasn't aware of it till today.
Like you, I'm not trying to argue, just trying to get to the bottom of your certain conviction about me being wrong because I personally have no qualms in admitting if my source of information is incorrect. I may have mistated what I meant to say but I'm certain my corrected statement leaves little room for misrepresentation or being wrong for that matter.
As for me paying for the cup that holds the lemonaide seperately, if you're asking me if I pay extra for my OS License.... I was in the past when I had a Windows 2003 server. I don't anymore cause I'm only running Fedora Core servers.
