Not exactly true. You can charge for LINUX, the question is will anyone
pay for it. There is nothing in the GPL license that prevents you from
making your own distribution and charging $$$$ for it. You just have to
supply the source code and not prevent anyone from doing whatever they
want with it, including undercutting your price.
