I don't believe this is legal, is it? ----- Original Message ----- From: Sridhar Date: Thursday, October 12, 2000 1:08 pm Subject: Re: [SLE] Ridiculous RedHat Prices from Australia

hi i dont know abt u ppl, but for me , i got Redhat 7.0 ( another .0 release -- also buggy ) for around Rs. 200 , that's just abt $4 if i'm right. all it cost me was the cost of the empty cds. What i think ( i'm not forcing u ) is that , once the linux enthusiasts get hold of a release( the more the better) then it's very easy and simple to sell it to ppl whose money really matters. Actually it's good advertisement for the release itself, the more it's used, the better. Well, i dont know what the problem is right now with Suse in getting the ftp up, but if it is a business strategy, it's just not gonna work

cheers cheedu

What the hell are all of you people smoking? Yes, RedHat allows you to download their distro for free... SO DOES EVERY OTHER DISTRO, INCLUDING> SUSE. No, they don't have the 7.0 release on the ftp site yet... they do tend to lag on that, but I'm sure that it will appear there soon enough. Granted, it may not be the pro version... but then again, you won't find RedHat's equivalent (Deluxe or whatever thay call it) on their ftp site either.

Quit whining and grow up already... or go spend $150 US on Windows ME and join the millions of other sheep that wallow in the mire of Microsoft> (then you'll really have something to whine about.)
