Economics 101

DateThursday, December 16, 2010 at 9:20AM

AB wants to buy a commercial pentest tool.

He goes to Core and asks for a Demo. They offer him 30 days to try their tool for the low price of 4k. All they need is the list of IP addresses because the demo is limited.

He went to Rapid7 and looked at Metasploit Express. He was able to download a FREE full demo with no restrictions for 7 days.

AB has 4k dollars to spend
Door #1: A limited functionality demo
Door #2: A licensed copy of Metasploit Express and 20 kegs of beer.

The only hard choice that is required is which beer to get... I vote for Heineken.
