Typically you're not going to be able to find a "boxed set" of Fedora
Core. You aren't going to find printed manuals, and of course you won't
get any sort of formal support.
Installing and using Fedora Core is like buying a "bare bones" or "build
it yourself" computer kit at your local Fry's electronics or similar. At
the cost of being totally on your own, you get "bleeding edge"
customization at a lower price, with all the parts putatively working.
I would suggest that if having printed manuals and a package with CDs
inside is very important to you, you may want to consider Red Hat
Enterprise WS or similar. That product is one you can actually buy,
receive a package, open box, pull out manuals and CDs/DVDs, and
otherwise have the experience heretofore enjoyed with the legacy Red Hat
products (i.E. RHL through Version 9).
Fedora Core is a whole different animal. It is perfect for someone like
me, running one itty-bitty server machine in my SOHO "enterprise."
