can I sell fedora?

[dyzelinis]

I think I have to explain what I want to do.

Actually I don't want to sell it. I want to buy it! And I am looking for
someone to sell it to me. I can not just have it for free. It may sound a
little bit tricky, but there is same tricky law in my country. Our government
has some kind of compensations for those who by OS. Some kind of anti-piracy
compaign.

This compensation is ment primarily for MS Windows, but I am going to install
FC3 on my new PC. So I want to know is it legal for some company to sell Fedora
to me for the price it wants? Can this price be as big as $100? So the amount
of maney that usualy goes to MS will go to me :)
