Lowercase "u" in SuSE made perfect sense from grammar point of view,> while making it uppercase makes no sense at all. It does not make "und" a noun.

I agree, SuSE makes much more sense than SUSE. C'eST La viE.

Not to argue with you, but you are referring to that old company: `Software und System Entwicklung`, which meant "software and system development."

At least that's what I was told. But that company is long gone. It left even before the Novell news was announced. Look at your 9.0 Box, or go to the SUSE website, and you will see what I mean.

Soon only "old foggies" wwill remember what S.u.S.E. use to stand for... but hopefully SUSE will continue to stand for:

"a comunity where we all do what we can to improve things."

Oh, and don't forget, the correct pronunciation is "sue-zee" ;) In checking the 8.2 distro, SuSE is used on the 8.2 box and in the /etc/issue. Also, when checking messages from YOU: Thu Oct 2 13:41:40 EDT 2003 <snip> Have a lot of fun... Your SuSE Team

But, the 9.o box uses SUSE (and 9.o with the letter o). And the web site uses SUSE except the logo which still uses SuSE. What matters to me is that SuSE or SUSE stands for the best distribution from the standpoint of engineering and ease of use at the desktop level. I don't really care if the name changes of Novellix Linux. - -- Jerry Feldman Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/rkbI+wA+1cUGHqkRAoMJAJ9hnO5W2lTutpreWu7yNNWWrdkXNQCePqwJ V3BL1emw05c8LAYhEcGCmeU= =+Iqv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
