Beer. No source. I think the limitation is 4GB of data store.

I am risking a flamewar here, but I thought I should raise the issue here.

Which kind of 'free' are we talking here? Speech or beer?

On another related point, I am always careful with corporate workshops/lectures/whatever, as they too often tend to be more of the advertising than the technical type.
