Red Hat and other Linux distributors are not in business out of an altruistic desire to bring computing to the masses free of charge. They'll make as much money as they can, in any way they can, just like any other company (including much-hated Microsoft). > ... i see now why no one want to make a commercial > distribution of FreeBSD, because, US, the comunity > aroung FreeBSD love FreeBSD so much that we keep > it at the right price FREE!!! Another good reason is that FreeBSD works as-is, "out of the box." You don't have to add a "distribution" with half the code in it just to get a complete operating system environment.
