Linux woulda been cheaper.
I've heard that the patcher program is just HTTP over a non-standard port. If that's the case, hope they're not using IIS LOL.
They have over 1000 machines - they'd be using a Select license, or even have a direct deal with MS. You can't tell how much per box it would be, but the last Select license I worked with was a *lot* cheaper than the "off the shelf" prices.
