I have purchased several shrink wrapped Distros including Red Hat, SuSE, Caldera, and Mandrake. I currently purchase the update for SuSE when it is avaiblable in Profesional. I love SuSE and want to help support their hard work. I also burn several cd's from the internet for INSTALLFESTS. Several people have mentioned Books being the largest cost I have to 100% agree. I have spent over $1,000 on books and about $300 on Distrobutions. This being said I have only spent the OEM price for Windows 98 that came with my PC and Widows ME for the wife.
Be careful to check the HIPPA regulations. They are very strict when it comes to patient comfidentiality. I work at a major medical lab in CA. We have to be careful with encryption and recordkeeping. Remember with HIPPA you not only have to keep the data secure, but you have to know who has had acces to files and when acces was given. Personaly I would love to be able to see my own records.
