You can't please everyone...
With 7.2 (I think) Red Hat waited with the release until the boxed sets
were ready. This wasn't very well handled by the users... I will wait
for the boxed set myself - with the benefit that I know most issues
already when I will do my install. ;-))

Is money really the issue? I've tried persuading a friend to use Red Hat
in any version for a couple years now. At his request I've given him CD
sets ever since versions 6.1 or 6.2. He still hasn't installed Red Hat.

Yes, I think that was great of Red Hat to reduce the price on the
"Personal" edition. That by itself may encourage more people who are

But would I be holding it in my hand right now. ;-)
I also am not fond of Amazon's privacy (if you want to call it that)
policy. I will just wait until I can buy it in town.

I just ordered 8.0 from Amazon.com. $134.99 for the 'Pro' boxed set,
free shipping, no sales tax, and I should have it in 10 days according
to Amazon. Long before then I'll also have downloaded all the CD's. I
could also have ordered it directly from Red Hat, but it is $10 more

It's too bad RH doesn't act like MS in this case... they

the RH faithful could make their purchase and RH would quickly
get some cash in the door.
