Hi Phil, To my knowledge the only difference is the packaging and price tag. Jesse

This question has been asked and answered on this list at least a hundred times. A simple visit to opensuse.org will reveal all. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen

In essence, yes, but the commercially purchased release uses a dual-layer DVD and includes some packages that are only available to download users by adding separate on-line repositories. I suppose you could argue that if one uses packages available only via those repositories that one must still configure them so that updates will be available, but if a large number of them are used and one has limited bandwidth, then it can still be advantageous to have the media locally accessible.
