    $30? Idk how it is in the consumer space, but in the Enterprise world the initial opening for copilot required 300 seats of E3 or better, and then a purchase of 300 seats of copilot 365 at $30 each. They were supposed to drop the 300 copilot 365 seat req q1 but I’m not sure if they did.

    3030012=108,000 per year for copilot. E3 is 36 a month, 30012=129,600.

    Big money.

      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.
