    oooh, is this true, has it been shipped in the Sates ( I tried to
grab a copy yesterday at teh local computer megastore Best Buy or
something like it , where I got the origional 7.0 and then 7.1  <G>)
<aside>And please no "why do I have to Buy ALL the UPgrades Wars..."  *I*
want it , is reason enough , it's my money I'm spending, not your's
okay?? Everyone doesn't HAVE to follow suit ... but I want it and I want
the Pro version for whatever  updates are included w/ software AND the
documentation which Suse  keeps nicely up to date.  </ aside >I find it
impossible to RTFDocs if I can get  the box booted ...  !! ( that's the
same reason having all the lovely help files only in the Operating
system is a waste of time and only on the hard drive. It's the same w/
ANY OS, can't get online, and can't boot the box at all , all that stuff
is just so much  wasted space.. )Tho I do like it if the  things boot
okay , it is still easier to follow examples w/ a book open than going
back and forth to a man page or howto. ( those are nice if the thing you
are trying to do can be copied and pasted somewhere, else it's not
always the easiest things to read... )

Anyway ... when am I likely to find it on a shelf somewhere here  in
steamy Florida ???
Blondely , and for somereason w/ dyslexic fingers ???? ,
