[brianc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Brian M. Collins)]

This was the first question I posed to the SuSE guys at LinuxWorld.  I
essentially got 3 answers:
- Soo-zee
- Soo-Suh
- and something that sounds like the children's author "Soose"

According to the folks at the conference, both from German and American
origin, it really doesn't matter, and what you call it is dependent on
where you are from.  One gentleman, upon hearing that I was from
California, suggested I call it "Soo-Suh".  

I believe I heard more Germans pronouncing it "Suu-zee" (like the
feminine name), but I believe that is slang, and not really the
"correct" German pronunciation.

Are we all clear on this now?
