Selling EMC would be silly anyway. Trying to hide it under your own GUI in a closed box would be the only way to go. Selling integration services would be doable, although it does seem like a difficult sell given the costs of motors and drives. There are a number of companies in that business already, Seimens seems to be the one I see a lot, although people talk about retrofitting fanuc and a number of other controls as well.
I got prices from the FSF for the GNU software in the early '90s, their software was only cheap if you were used to spending thousands for a c compiler. Sure it was free, but getting a copy wasn't.
