Is the licence one gets for $350 a site licence? Does this mean I
can have it up and running on as many machines at my corporation as I

[ See http://plan9.att.com/plan9/shrink.html for the actual license. It
contains the following phrase "This SOFTWARE may be used by you or by
an organization of which you are a member or employee solely for
