is sun linux free to download just like other linux flavors?
IAW the GPL, source code for all parts of Sun Linux will be made available on our FTP server (not sure of the exact date, but should be very soon -- check ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/). Whether or not there will be an ISO is uncertain at this point. Also, the installer etc on our CD is designed for our hardware only. While Sun Linux _should_ run on non-LX50 hardware, we are not promoting nor supporting it that way...
