Now: The SUN-FLASH announcement told, that the price is for the media,
and that the price for the license is $0. Is it possible to get the license
only (given that one is 5.4 licensee or fit's into one of the other 
categories) without any tape or documentation ? If this is possible,
i could copy the sources (which do not cost anything) from a friend who
was willing to pay another 995$. If SUN's interest is to spread OpenWindows,
this should be possible.
