Stuart, et All,
As one who likes SuSE I'll jump on my box.
I waited this time from my usual scenario:
Dump everything important with xcdroast to a cd-rom,
delete the existing install and throw the new one on.
This was due to time as I had an intense travel schedule
and I have a gorgeous/wise wife and 5 wonderful kids.
Now it has been the forecasted time span between distro releases
and I have suffered through the usual ...."wish I had the latest".
7.1 has been out long enough for me, and I'm most happy to see the new
forcasted. I heard from a reliable source it would be out soon :)

Oh, Ben, this is just beautiful. Could it possibly be that you've stumbled upon the magic formula to quell the "free beer or nothing" element that seems to rear its ugly head every few weeks ?
On the down side, I'm a bit miffed about the new version. I read somewhere on this list last week (admittedly not from a known reliable source) that 7.2 wouldn't be out for months. So I decided to bite the bullet and buy 7.1 Pro last Wednesday. Doh ! Oh, well, maybe I can justify the new version to the boss when it comes out. If not, I just might buy it out of my own pocket. Money and value are two very different things. Of course I preferred getting the full version for $30 back in the good old days (was it only last year ?) but buying the distro helps keep it available by funding development. Is that so wroooong ?
Bye for now, Stuart.
