It is not clear to me that this is the case.  I believe, although I can
not tell for sure from the contract, that I do NOT have to pay a distribution
fee (which by the way, is at _most_ $40/machine) if the machine in question
already has Motif on it from another source.  Or in other words, I'd just
have to charge $40 extra for the Sun version of my product :-).

I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
