   I'm running it on a few workstations right now, and have been since
it was still called Red Hat Linux. ;)  ATM, Fedora Core Test 3 is
tracking Rawhide for updates, and Rawhide is closed until later today
(probably).  IOW, you could install from the FCT3 ISOs, but you can't
get the latest code right now.

   That being said, I was just able to get a connection to one of the
ftp.redhat.com sites (66.187.232.30).  It'd probably take a week or so
to actually get three ISOs from there, so I'd recommend
redhat.newaol.com.  They're not on the official mirror list, but they
have the files and they're fast (~525kB/s).
   Helpful hint: The beta release name is "severn", so that's the
directory to look in.  Try:
ftp://redhat.newaol.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta/severn/en/iso/i386/severn-i386-disc[123].iso

   I'll probably bring a set or two of CDs to the meeting tonight, in
case anyone wants to try it out.
