Hi
Is the Linux OS provided free?
How do companies like Red Hat make money - Is it just from providing documentation and other services?
Thx

Documentation and Support.
Individual users may not need the support, but large companies give big bucks to Red Hat to provide Enterprise-level support.

I just looked up RedHat's earnings statement. They haven't made any money yet. But... they promise to this time.
