However, I don't like the fact that you can't buy updates anywhere except from SuSE. I like to support my local linux vendor (www.linuxemporium.co.uk), but since the only versions I can buy are the full boxed sets, I skip a version or two (e.g. 6.2 -> 6.4 -> 7.2). If SuSE would allow sales of update versions through resellers which specifically request it (generally pro-linux/linux-specific resellers), they would have a more contiguous revenue stream, IMHO. -- David Smith Tel: +44 (0)1454 462380 (direct) STMicroelectronics Fax: +44 (0)1454 617910 1000 Aztec West TINA (ST only): (065) 2380 Almondsbury Home: 01454 616963 BRISTOL Mobile: 07932 642724 BS32 4SQ Work Email: Dave.Smith@st.com Home Email: David.Smith@ds-electronics.co.uk
