Sell? Why not just a monthly subscription to keep open software free?

  Sorry, yes we do sales, so sell also means a SaaS subscription. That was my implied meaning of seeking to sell Ubuntu to Users.
  
  So now you have a free update, but a note if you want certain security patches you have to pay for Pro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
