Linux is free.
Our time isn't, and trade shows cost money too :)
But really, linux is a free OS, if someone want to install it for free,
he is free to download it from the net, RTFM, and install it.
i did it, and I guess many of us did the same.
If someone wants us to install it for him, its very reasonable to make
him pay, not for the OS but for the service.
