SuSE Linux Pro 9.1 Update is $30.00 USD cheaper than SLP 9.1 and I assume more of the money goes to SuSE then retailer end sales. My question is for which are you opting? I am leaning towards the latter. Thanks. Best Regards. -- _/_/_/ Bob Pearson gottadoit@mailsnare.net _/_/_/ "Struggle, and you shall live".

The Update contains the same CDs and DVDs as the regular Professional boxed set, it just has less dead trees included, for that reason, I always opt for the Update. -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 9.0) GNOME updates for SuSE: http://www.usr-local-bin.org

And for the same reason I usually buy (at least) one full version .

<Sigh> Well last time I purchased the update I was within scant dolars of the store bought Pro edition. The cost of laning it in Canada from the U.S. store killed any advantage. Mike
