I'm curious, will SuSE standard still cost $29 at stores and still have 1,600 apps - or is this a RedHat like move to make the distro have a higher price tag. :-( That was something I always appreciated SuSE for...
ya, me too. Thats why I never buy something like Red Hat Standard edition, because actually redhat standard edition has almost no difference with the GPL one, except yes, you have the registration code, and some think books. I buy
Hi all, I am afraid that SuSE's silence is deafening on this matter. I would have thought that jumping on the RH bandwagon, i.e. selling a "come and get me" distro on 1 CD for a few $ and charging a lot more for the multi CD "Professional Edition" would be a detrimental move. We have all seen what has happened to M$. I for one buy SuSE for the great selection of "free" packages. I think that this is one of the strong points of the distro. OK we can do without the manual if it was still on a CD in some readable format as the cover of the CD's is nearly enough to get you up and running. The printing costs of the manual alone must be quite high.

Red hat Deluxe Version instead.
Now if SuSE makes the difference of the price between the personal and proffesional, and also the packages in personal CD is very very less, I think people will prefer to buy the GPL one, or if they have money, they will try to buy the proffesional one.
