This is something I did not even imagine might have happened. 
I do not think linuxplaza was selling the Linux CDs for profit.
Anyway, if this is true and the trend continues, soon we might
see indiainfotech and others selling only Debian, *BSD, Gentoo,
Knoppix, etc. that _really_ are free.
That might be quite good, in a way IMHO.
