Well, at least you are not the only one. I am taking a few sets of SUSE8 with me to Canada next month - I am going back for a visit anyway. Several friends of mine in Calgary and Edmonton are complaining about the very same thing... they want to buy SuSE8, but no one is carrying it locally. C.

I don't know where you are located, but amazon.co.uk lists it as being in stock.
I'm in Canada, and when ckm mentioned that Future Shop would carry it, I decided to go that route to encourage future shelf distribution (I see it as voting).
I guess I have to buy online, as I have every version before. Sigh.
I'm mostly pissed off because I waited to get it off the shelf. If I had known that this wasn't going to happen, I would've just bought it online and I'd have had it long ago.
