Hello:

There seems to be two software version within "affordable range" : Desktop ($49) and Workstation ($179)

What would the forum recommend as the environment of choice for practicing for the RHCSA exam.

Best,
4DR

Assuming you're talking about operating systems I'd just use Fedora

Scientific Linux 6 is built from RHEL 6 source code, and has been out for months. Cost: free (almost -- there's time to download and the cost of the Internet connection).

I gather CentOS 6 will actually be available in the next week or two.

Both are better options to Fedora, as RHEL 6 includes functional elements from Fedora 12, 13, and 14.
