What I usually do is buy one of each 6.x 7.x release of redhat. Then I 
download the others.

If you are at wsu email me, because I can with about 
2(redhat)-3(mandrake,debian) CD-Rs and half an hour or so get you copies of 
mandrake, debian, or redhat (latest of each). I would reccomend one of those 
three if you are new. On the computers there are Red Hat and Mandrake, so if 
you wanted to see those two, (which seem to be the favorites  (along with 
debian of aclug) so generally we can help best with those.)
