store.suse.com sells to Europe? The site indicates that the shipment would be fed-exed from the US to Europe, but that can't be right for a product that originates in Germany can it? I've looked at www.suse.de/en but all I can find there is the statement "We recommend you to order through a local distributor or purchase at a local reseller.".
store.suse.com is outsourced (we design it but actual fulfillment is done by a specialised company) and that company happens to ship worldwide, using UPS, Fedex.
If you want to buy in Europe go to our webstore there...
There's no such thing, as far as I can see. suse.de has a web store, suse.co.uk has a web store, but as far as I'm able to read the web page, the rest of us are left in the hands of local retailers. If there is a way to order directly from SuSE for people in Europe outside Germany and the UK I would *love* to know how. Because the retailers here, insofar as they carry SuSE at all, only rarely carry the update, and if they do it's a *long* time after it's released. //Anders
