Sorry, I can't get you.

SRS is trying to say that the administrators may be reluctant to install
anything on old Suns because of limited disk space, say 100 MB, rather than
fear of OSS code.

What I guess is they are ignorant about SunOS configuration. I have
seen them calling for technical support from SUN for setting up the
machine. Atleast these machines are new, so it would take time to
settle up.
