 The conditions look rather like the SCO ancient UNIX licences, but
 it's *cheaper* ($75, which includes deliverables from Sun).  Warren,
 is this ammunition to lobby SCO to drop the prices of Ancient UNIX
 licenses?  
 After looking at the site, it seems as though Sun is trying to prevent
 licence holders from sharing code with other licence holders.  If this
 is true, it would certainly make the Solaris licence less desirable to
 hobbyists than the ancient UNIX licence, unfortunately.

Currently out of town. Still, it might be worth asking SCO for a discount!
Does the license cover all of Solaris, or just the kernel??

Cheers,
