Red Hat WS can be downloaded for $179.00, but doesn't include documentation, support or most of the server packages I want. You can download Red Hat ES for $349.00 to get the server packages without documentation or support - it's $799.00 with documentation and support.
I have used support email twice and don't feel I need it. I don't need a package that does more than one cpu or 64-bit. What I do need is something better than a desktop (emachine plus office) at an affordable price. I'm disabled and affordable for me falls well below the quotes I found. I haven't checked Fedora, but am feeling a bit down after reviewing my choices. RH9 may be the last package I can afford if this goes worst-case.
The quotes were just a quick info gathering, not at all thorough. -- "Never send a human to do a machine's job." - Agent Smith
