What's the deal with that NuShere stuff... I visited their website and download a Free version (40MB)... <snip>
what are we paying for here? <snip>
I don't know.. Perhaps you pay for the tools.. or because of the fact they seem to preconfigure the stuff.. I didn't check their website. Must be quite some additions they made and tools they added (or they didn't bother to zip/gzip/whatever).. I downloaded MySQL, PHP and Apache (all latest releases).. that was about 17MB (manuals included).. You can download everything for free from www.mysql.com www.php.net www.apache.org and a step to step guide to install everything can be found at www.devshed.com (amongst others).. So no reason to pay whatever amount to NuSphere.. If you need a supportcontract for MySQL you could get one from the creators .. found at www.mysql.com Don't go to mysql.org since that's NuSphere trying to impersonate the creators of MySQL.. For MySQL www.mysql.com is the place to be.. all sorts of tools can be found there too.... best of all: it's FREE. Bye, B.
