Now that the hardware is a commodity, the os is a commodity, so it will follow that apps will become commodities, and a day will come when people will laugh if someone wants more than $25(US) for an application. Cross platform technologies such as Java, Tcl/Tk, and other cross platform "enablers" make the possibility of renting software directly from the author a complete possibility. Imagine in the near future, if you want to use software, you go to a licensing page, pop out a credit card and get 6 months use for example $6, maybe ...and the app is downloaded and run direct from the author. The advantage is that the user gets current software all the time, and the author is getting paid for their work. > The main thing I'm looking for now is a replacement for M$ Publisher.

GIMP is a "knock off" of Adobe Photoshop, and is better in some of its features than Photoshop. It may have some of what you need. Another free tool you can use for limited layouts is Netscape's composer, While it's not everything you need, it will definitely be something you can use. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

One thing definetely, the YaST is a commercial program which can not be copied without the written permission from SuSE. But for all freewares under the GPL come with the box, you can copy them for free, what you have to do is just to remain the copyright notice together with the new copy, as GPL requires.

I had a Stingray/Hecules 128/3dfx rush board It used SuSE's ATD3 X server, it worked very well, until I wanted to play good 3dfx games over linux. like Quake. I had the oporunity to buy a new motherboard with a bigger cache and it boasted a AGP port (FIC 2012) So I decided : Voodoo2 is comming out very soon, and so i went with the mobo and bought an Expert@Work AGP to fit the agp port, after some downloading of the SuSE (updated from the 5.1 disks) Mach64 X server, and some configuation, I got it working almost flawlessly, except for one error at a X logoff, np I gona get that fixed. My next thing to do is get that Voodoo2 card and link it to my AGP Xpert@Work card, so I can play thoes 3dfx games and Open GL/Glide games (quakeI,II)on my linux box :) Hey anyone want to buy my old video card? <g> -- Steven Udell Wayfarers hettar(a)teleport.com Truth Love sudell(a)teleport.com & Courage <A HREF="http://www.teleport.com/~hettar"><A HREF="http://www.teleport.com/~hettar</A">http://www.teleport.com/~hettar</A</A>> -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

I have bought WP7 and Applix4.3 student version. Applix on the cover: 'complete,integrated and fully graphical office suite, which includes Word Processor, Spreedsheet, Presentation Graphics, Mail and Development tools. Now I don't know much about M$ publisher and I dunno if I can compare and say that applix can do the same thing that publisher can do. So I won't. I do know it installs simply into SuSE5.0 and 5.1 and not sure what kernel it actually needs, it did work fine with 2.0.30+ Thats all I can say about applix, other than it is pretty decent, never crashed on me and runs under X, thou it could be a bit more user friendly. WP 7 is all of the good stuff your used to in a word processor. and installs easy. Now a few more needed applications get devloped or upgraded from thier other OS (operating systems) and maybe a few more games :) I will have no need for other OSs > The main thing I'm looking for now is a replacement for M$ Publisher.

So well this is my opinon so its mine, and you Hi Steven; My wife & I use WP 4.2 under DOS. While for me it's ok, no big deal, my wife loves it. I, at first, thought about upgrading to WP7/Linux but the price stopped me. Yes, I know that it's not much, but my entire computer bugget for the year is only 240 DM (ca. 150$). So it's out. Here in Germany alot of the Computer mags have CD with them. Some of them have Linux software on them. One of them is saying that they'll have Star Office on in one or two months. I hope so. The main thing I'm looking for now is a replacement for M$ Publisher. I need to be able to layout a bulletin and all I have is Publisher. If Star Office can handle layouts then I can delete all of M$ Windows.

>Any comments from SuSE on this post copied from the Portland Linux >Users Group? >> Apparently, many of the programs they ship are not free, >> or so I've heard. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I am always sceptical about statements that end with this phrase, as in "Many people make frequent, serious factual errors, or so I've heard." :-) Here is a question for the SuSE guys, from a new SuSE customer: Which parts of the SuSE CD's cannot be copied? For example, Redhat ships Metro-X, which you cannot freely redistribute. Are there any similar restrictions that would prevent me from making copies of the SuSE distribution? Mark.
