Other than downloading the distribution for free, you can get Redhat 6.0
from http://www.cheapbytes.com for $1.99 + shipping.  If you want the 4 cd
set with archives, it is about $6.00.  This includes Wordperfect as well
as a ton of software...also the redhat manual on disk.  Beats the heck out
of $70.00 from a brick and mortar store...
