Actually, if you are feeling a bit guilty about using Yellow Dog Linux 
3.0.1 without a license, you may rest easier. Although purchasing the 
3.0 disks from Terra Soft is a Good Thing for both Terra Soft and the 
overall community (I bought my YDL disks), YDL is under a GPL license, 
which makes it free for the downloading. You would only be under an 
obligation if you made changes to the source code, which you would then 
have to release under the same license.

Thanks for trying to be a good citizen!

Best wishes,
Clint
