I, too, saw the announcement some months back that the naming
designation was being changed from SuSE to SUSE.  However, everywhere
I look (manuals - not got the boxed 10 yet though only the download,
websites etc) it still appears to be termed SuSE.  My personal
preference is for SuSE as it definitely used to be termed.  I just
like it that way :-)
