There is a total of about 8 cds I believe. You can buy the 4 cd set from walnut creek cdrom for about 40 dollars or you can download the isos and burn it yourself or you can down load the files to create 2 floppies and install the os from the internet. Really it is very much free but that does not stop comercial entities from selling their spin on it.
