I was one step further -- I meant that among those 5 that buy 
embedded license only 3-4 may be developing products for resale, 
others may be for internal company/school usage -- and on parallel -- 
those who buy normal server may need more connections for server used 
internally (that is not for salable product).

Academic discounts vary but usually it is 30-80% discount on purchase.

>Or one copy 50% discount,

You are thinking of purchases for computer labs. Usually one has 
different pricing for larger quantities.

>Although what sense buy into class 10 servers?  :-)

10 servers no. But one server with more than 5-connection limit.

I am talking about buying additional connections. As you noted 
yourself, you will actually be selling two things in parallel but you 
seem to default to considering the embedded product :)
