Yes, but I really meant the fact that typing SuSE required just a bit of extra effort to get it right. And there is a reason behind having the lower-case 'u'. It is, IMO, an insult to the German language to ignore that detail. I could be wrong, but I suspect SUSE is an Americanism. I am quite proud of my 31+ decades of American ancestry, but this tendency to "normalize" every nuance of a foreign culture is utterly offensive.
