DEC did the same thing. Every Digital Unix since at least 4.0d came with a
'freeware for digital unix' cd.

John Hall said in an interview, before he left cpq, that they were
considering putting GNOME on Tru64 per default.. i hope they do. Unix
vendors tend to stand still for too long imo, so it'd be nice to see this.
