Is there a list of sites (or the ones you know of) where it is possible to buy desktop or laptop pcs with Suse as default ? This could be a good way to attract users to Suse. Thanks ;=) Fabrice
Fabrice, Almost all of the SUSE pre-loads are SLED, multiple reasons for this which hopefully someone in the know in Novell can expand on. I think it comes down to support (as in telephone/e-mail/etc) and also hardware binary drivers. I've only seen Shuttle provide openSUSE with *some* of their PCs [0]. Unfortunately Ubuntu had managed to create such a hysteria around their distro that vendors believed the hype (and if I was synical, which I am sometimes, I'd say they also took a kickback too ;) ).
