thanks gideon. just for the sake of discussion (and i want to be able to answer this question when i am asked). RH allows the dowloading of the installer + a 30-day evaluation subscription. this stresses one point posted in the forum link i gave before[1] that RH does not sell the operating system but the bundled services. if a person already has access to the installer can he then install it and use it past the evaluation period? i cannot see any restrictions about this on the legal statement (aka terms of use)[2]. thanks.
