I totally disagree based on real world experience.
Having a usb port does not mean usb booting is supported.
Same for a CDROM drive (disabled in BIOS).
However, that point is moot anyway since even without a bootable usb port you can use a USB stick to start openSUSE. See http://seife.kernalert.de/blog/2009/11/24/usb-boot-enabler/
Nice! :-)
So all openSUSE would have to do – if it really wants to consider those with neither DVD, nor bootable USB port – is to provide an image to do this or integrate it into the netinstall. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
