I have just installed opensuse 10.3 86_64 using the iso version. I also ordered the box version from Novell which it has not arrived yet.
Q: is there any difference between the iso image and the dvd from the box?
website DVD-iso image contains 4.3GB softwares for 32/64 bit systems. boxed version contains 1 dual-layer DVD for x86 system and 1 dual-layer DVD for 64bit system - 16 GB software and printed manuals. It also comes with 90-day installation support by phone and e-mail.
Q: is it worth to reinstall it when the box version arrives?
After reading the above answer, it's you decision. My opinion 'No', just add the DVD as source repository and install other packages from there.
Q: if there is a difference what repositories I have to add to be the same
I think so.
Q: registering the code with novell what gives me besides the online/phone support
Boxed version comes with 90-day installation support by phone and e-mail. You may extend it after purchase support.
Some of the answers may seems obvious but....
