Is this the only way to get plan 9?  I've gotten a lot of people here all
hot and bothered about plan 9, but if we have to wait for all the licensing
to go through our legal department, it will probably be over a year
(based on previous experiences) before we ever see plan 9, IF we ever see
plan 9.

I seem to remember someone from the summer Usenix BOF throwing out a figure
of $50.00.  Is that related to the licensing, or can we just buy it?
