I don't see any information about the viewer on that page.  The viewer for 
the Enterprise and Personal editions is freely available.  Just download 
the trial version of Enterprise and keep the viewer.  That's what I have 
done and I have not paid for it.  I use it with both old and new (free and 
paid) versions of the server and it works great.

Go here...

...click "Proceed to Downloads" (you don't have to enter Your Details 
everytime).  Note that the first few entries on the next page require 
licenses (those are the servers) but the *viewer* do not require licenses. 
There are versions for Windows, Solaris 7, HP/UX, and Linux.

I'm not sure of how the Windows Enterprise Edition Viewer differs from the 
Windows Personal Edition Viewer.  I would guess that the Enterprise viewer 
works for both types of servers, but wouldn't mind hearing from the 
development team on that!
