Fedora is now a trademark of Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat will defend this trademark in order to protect the integrity of The Fedora Project. Also, there may very well be CD's made avaialble of the Enterprise versions so you can install those as a first step. They wouldn't be distributed by RedHat, but would still be free (as in beer & speech) if you didn't require support.
