i) You are not the target audience for the enterprise products
ii) If you dont understand the difference adn you make statements, you
are probably giving yourself the chance of saying blatantly wrong
things
iii) If you want the manuals badly, you can always print them. If your
life is really depending on that, I mean.

What was wrong with the system: it wasnt making enough money to keep
the devel going
You say that there were useful non-oss software and then you say about
bowing to microsoft? You are not playing well the stereotype of
freedom fighter robin-hood master gnu
I-am-against-capitalist-mcdonalds-and-microsoft. To do it correctly
you should have criticized the fact it came with non-oss software. Try
again, mr che guevara, leader of the revolution.

But next time you show yourself so passionate mega master know-it-all,
try to discover what was happening by the time Novell bought SUSE.
"Why must we bow down to microsoft", heh, thought I was reading
pirates of silicon valley taglines... Full of rhetoric, poor on
contents...

Then your boring fud about microsoft owning suse bla bla bla bla.
Boring, I want to emphasize. And then  you are only one year later,
anyways...

> to make it less and less attractive.  If I didn't have a whole batch of stored

For someone criticizing MS, you do a fine job of FUD.

bye!

If you have just watched Braveheart, I forgive your the nonsense
you've wrote. Or if you were sad and feeling alone.
