SGI licencing of X windows

I found out that Silicon Graphics gives you the distribution of X
windows for free, but charges you a certain monthly amount (in our
case $15/month).

Here is what I was wondering:

1. can one get the tape and not the support, thus not having access
   to the hotline etc?

OR

2. does the X distribution from MIT have the drivers and other
   special things for the personal IRIS?

If either of these were the case, we would be willing to get X
without the support from SGI.

Thank you very much,
