I will try that. I just found it odd that every time I tried to
download it I got the wrong results on the check out. I have
downloaded FC1-FC3 countless times with very little issue.

Has anyone else that has tried to download the ISO files from the RH
site had a problem?

LinuxISO.org does not have it, only FC3.
