and as has already been suggested elsewhere, red hat made an obvious mistake in discontinuing a $29 basic boxed set. now those who would have been happy to support red hat in paying for an official boxed set are undoubtedly thinking hard about shelling out $59(?), or just a couple of bucks to cheapbytes. red hat blew it here. rday -- Robert P.
