I would guess so. As soon as people figure out where to find it in a store, it's time for a new release.
Do retail sellers get credit for unsold stock when you ask them to replace it all with a new release?
I don't know the details of that stuff since I'm just a country sysadmin and not PalmPilot-armed marketing/sales person, but I would imagine that something like a credit must happen. I get the feeling that the big stores (Frys, Bestbuy, that kind of place) just hate the logistics of it all. Of course, feedback@suse.com should hear this kind of input from customers. -- Cheers, Christopher Mahmood --------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE Inc., Tel: +1-510-628-3380, x5024 580 Second St., Suite 210 Fax: +1-510-628-3381 Oakland CA 94607 Public Key: USA http://www.suse.com/~ckm/key.gpg ---------------------------------------------------------------
