Won't Happen
As nice as this seems, the way they think it will happen won't. That future conversation --

[Hotel IT Guy] So how much will this hotel upgrade cost me? Round numbers.
[MS Tam] $100k a room, time 500 rooms, about $5m. Of course you will need to have the CALs for 7 billion people @ $25 per, you never know who will walk in the door, eh, that's $175Bn. Oh and the TV, alarm clock and coffee maker are all 8 core processors @ $750 per core for 500 rooms, that's $9m. Rough total -- $180Bn
[long pause]
[MS Tam] Do you want extended service support with this order?
