Not to mention the fact that Sun has always been very friendly to developers,
offering every developer large or small considerable discounts on Sun products
and services. The don't give away their hardware, because the make it to make
money on it. They do offer discounts of up to 40% on Sun hardware and soft-
ware. If you want a discount, join the Catalyst program.
If you want cheap Sun hardware, find somebody selling sun4c's and sun4m's.
If you want free Sun hardware, go to school. ;^)
