Because FreeBSD, linux is free. There is no charge to download / install and the use of programs like apache is free also.
Thats whats cool about open source. I just had to buy the hardware i build a full on server running FreeBSD that did Web, DNS, Samba, Mail, Scanning Mail for Spam / Virus Webmail etc Didn't cost me a cent for the software.
