Lastly, SuSE's decision to drop the personal in 9.2 was a simple business decision. Probably a good one too. Way too many people were freaked out and disappointed with personal when they realized all the stuff that it did not include.
I'm guesing at least partially fueled by the creation of their Novell Linux Desktop offering... Same type of stripped-down distro, different name...?
Personally, I don't see them as being similar at all. The personal package was aimed at the masses, the Novell Linux Desktop is aimed at businesses. My take, which is basically a guess, is that they will market the Novell branded stuff to business and leave the SuSE branded stuff for the mass consumer market.
