Free !!!!  <<  What comes in your mind when your hear this word ? Probably to 
get something without spending anything. Well IBM,Sun and all competitor's are 
throwing this word across the globe. IBM already announced they are looking 
forward in to the new era of Open Source..Is that a way to make people fool ?  
I dont think so. 

 Microsoft's term and conditions are pretty straight forward. Buy licensed 
product of Microsoft. Thats it . 

 GPL licensing terms and third party vendor's conditions Are complicated.  
People themselves are not clear about these things. Aking the price of media on 
which burnt open source material is not allowed..Ambassador of Red hat says 
this. At other hand GPL web site says asking price of media & labour charges 
are OK.  It's pretty confusing. I am waiting to see more clear terms from these 
Open Source guys including IBM,Sun Microsystems & Red Hat .
