That is not necessarily true. While you can download the PUEL version 
for free, you may not use it for regular commercial installation. From 
the link you posted:

| The full VirtualBox package is available in binary (executable) form
| free of charge from the Downloads page. This version is free for
| personal use and evaluation under the terms of the VirtualBox Personal
| Use and Evaluation License.    
|
| If, instead, you wish to purchase licenses for enterprise use and/or
| enterprise support for VirtualBox, please do not hesitate to contact
| your Sun representative.
