FWIW, I got my SuSE 5.2 from Linux Central (<A HREF="http://www.linuxcentral.com";><A HREF="http://www.linuxcentral.com</A">http://www.linuxcentral.com</A</A>>
) for $34.95 as well.  It was $5 to ship from northern Michigan to my
home in San Antonio, TX via USPS Priority Mail, and it took 3 business
days.

If this helps someone on the list, cool.  :)
