All our stuff runs on one (1) server

This has nothing to do with MS, but why would you set up such an architecture? If one of the apps hits a memory leak (their HeatTest project did), than all of your other critical services/apps are interrupted.

That costs us about $200 a month. By the way, that's Amazon

What Amazon configuration gets you 8GB or RAM for $200/month?? Am I missing something?

Database servers for all of the above

MS SQL licensing costs are crazy stupid. You either (a) have to fork over about $2-3k fee or (b) the cloud based cost is an extra ~$150/month on top of the standards windows vm cost.

I'm genuinely curious about all of the above, because I am working with a MS-based startup and would be good to know.

But most importantly, because the customer doesn't give a darn.

100% agree.
