Interesting bit of news, see below...

Interesting that the SUSE licenses come from MS, not Novell. And that MS have already given out 40000 licenses.

Are these the same coupons discussed before: "Coupons apply specifically to SLES running as a virtual guest in a host Windows operating system or vice versa." If so, it is not too surprising that Dell would rather get them from M$. That way they should not have M$ telling their customers that running SLES is not supported in a M$ virtual machine. I know if I was an Enterprise customer I would want that confidence.
