Can you get a confirmation about the existence of a local landscape server?
And ballpark how many nodes on Landscape? We talking hundreds or tens?

The published rate for Landscape is $150 per node annually before undisclosed volume discounting. And if you are running a local Landscape server that's a reported $8k on top of that.

Yes, they run a local Landscape server. A 2008 report estimates ~900 Linux desktops in the university (yes, universities are Windows shops as well). As far as I know, the intention is to migrate all Linux desktops to the centrally provided Linux environment, as they did with Windows desktops long ago. I have totally no clue about the (volume) pricing, as I am just a user.
