In this case, it's well worth the effort. Version 7 is so vastly superior to version 5 that there really is no comparison.
And now that Adobe has released it officially and you can use the regular front-door download page (instead of an FTP server), it's plenty easy.

Thanks for your feed-back. I downloaded AdobeReader_enu-7.0.0-1.i386.rpm but then realised that it may not work for SuSE 9.1 under 64 bit O.S. Any ideas?
The stand-alone Adobe Reader will work fine under a 64-bit system, since it emulates a 32 bit environment as needed. If you're running 64-bit browser, then I think the 32-bit plug-in supplied with the reader package won't work and you will not be able to view PDF files within the browser. To my knowledge, there's no 64-bit plug-in from Adobe, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
