I forgot about that too, and I have been using Solaris for many many
years.  I just usually purchase support since these are for production
servers.  

It is just like RedHat RHEL versus Fedora.  The last machines that I
just purchased were Dell R710s with Solaris 10 x86.

*slaps forehead*  You're right.  This is because you're using it in a
"commercial" context.  It's free for personal use.  I forgot about
that.
