Am I to understand that as soon as I get a new copy of 6.0, I'll necessarily need to start patching libraries? I still don't even understand libc, glibc, ad nauseum, but I usually can recognize a bottom line. I like SuSE very much, but if 6.0 will be substandard in any way, I'll limp by with my 5.3 evaluation. What is the REAL DEAL here folks. Should a "newbie" buy now or later?
Penguins, I was once told (possibly not seriously), have an interesting approach to takng the plunge when they want to go into the sea to hunt fish. The danger, of course, is that a penguin is a nice breakfast for a seal or a juicy mouthfull for a killer whale. So the penguin herd lines up on the edge of the ice-sheet, at the top of the slope going down to the water, and they look down at the water, and at each other, and down at the water, and ... Then, suddenly, a few of them lose patience. Off they go, sliding down into the water, and the others watch. If all goes well, down go the rest of them. ... I shall be watching patiently.
