I thought everyone knew `$150' == `free' (must be the NEW new math) :-) ...

Seriously, you may get a free copy of GNU CPP from anyone who is
willing to give you one, but FSF is not willing to mail tapes for
free.  That is, the *software* is free, but the *tape* costs $150
if obtained from FSF.

The distinction matters whenever you get it some OTHER way.
