With Linux, you never have to pay for an upgrade ... at least for the Open
Source part. You can (if you're patient) download the whole thing from (say)
metalab's mirror of the Red Hat distribution (or even from RH's own ftp
site, though I have trouble finding things there), or buy a $2 (+ s/h) CD
from Cheapbytes or equivalent. Or buy the "real thing" from Red Hat for $70
or so. But RH won't give you a free set of Official RH 6.0 disks, if that is
what you were hoping for.
