As to price, if you have broadband internet access (or know someone who
does) you can download most distros for free -- including Fedora.
Needless to say, don't try it with dial-up. Check out distrowatch.com
for links.
One other thing I could/should have mentioned -- POV-Ray for Linux is
command-line only, no GUI interface. Not difficult to use, but less
convenient than the Windows version. And it is easy to install, just
run the install script (as root) and you're done.
