Many versions of LINUX installation packages are available for varying prices. You pay only for the installation media and the efforts to put it together. SUSE LINUX is provided by Novell. Red Hat LINUX is also quite popular. The two are the most common LINUX distributions available. You can get a free copy of SUSE from the Novell web site then load it to your own CD for installation.
