Six months ago, Linux vendor Red Hat acquired the closed source Exadel Studio Pro IDE and pledged to turn it into a fully open source Red Hat product. On Monday, Red Hat officially released JBoss Developer Studio, based on the Exadel product as a 100 percent open source IDE. The new Eclipse based IDE offering from Red Hat's JBoss division will provide a development environment that will work on both Windows and Linux for Java middleware solutions from JBoss.

In many enterprises there are a set of approved software, and you don't download things that are not approved if you like your job. So going through the IT department would have been necessary even if it was free of charge. I wouldn't call $99 expensive. The process of getting it approved for use, probably costs more in many companies.
So, the $99 price is most likely a bigger problems to amateur users, that program for fun and don't make money from their software, than it is to enterprises.
