I never minded the price considering how just in software the value you get I have used SuSe since version 5.2 and have never complianed about pricing because it still better all the rest. Yast alone they could have made money releasing at Adminstration software is they so wished. True at beggining the distro was much cheaper but progress as a price. If they where offering SuSe 7.3 with Kernel 2.4.10 and only the apps i would take as insult but with sofware that comes with and not mention the manuals it number 1 my list.

Gee this list is starting to be like a game of whack-a-mole. No sooner we have dampened one pointless, unending thread than we start on another. Hey -- I have an idea! Let's have the same discussion about pricing we have everytime SuSE releases a new version! Won't that be fun!
More topics for discussion:
Why aren't the full set of ISO's on the ftp site?
Why is there a delay between release of the CD's and ftp release of the distro?
Why is YaST1 being phased out?
Why do replies go to sender, and not list?
Why doesn't Fred post here anymore?/Why is Fred still posting here?
Here are some arguments you can use:
If SuSE doesn't make its distros cheaper, I won't download them for free anymore! I am a valued customer, they should respect my opinion.
If SuSE doesn't make its distro available sooner, I will download RedHat for free instead of SuSE. And I will keep saying it with every new release of SuSE. Nyah-nyah!
If YaST is phased out, I will switch to RedHat or Debian for their ease of configuration. Take that!
If replies are not sent to list automatically, I will quit this list and won't you all be sorry then! That'll teach you for not realizing that democracy means doing exactly as I say!
If Fred is allowed/not allowed to keep posting this list, I will spam this list with complaints about spam/not getting enough of Fred's posts.
Now you all know how to make a valuable contribution to the list, what are you waiting for?
