Well, I got 11.0 as a gift after my attempt to order failed (aparently because I don't have a phone number). Now I don't see any way to get 11.1. I'm waiting to see if Cheapbytes will offer 11.1. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

rday Yeah, but mine is for an office, and the tax guy wants receipts and he's only happy w/ things that come from a 3rd party. I do not wish to disappoint, cuz then I could spend hours wading thru logs trying to recreate stuff... it's a mess.

Won't the tax guy let you download free stuff? What's to stop you from buying some blank DVDs and burning your own? Last I heard, stores issues receipts when you buy blank media. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

He probably means, "... only people willing to give out their phone numbers in order to buy the product" can complete the ordering process. It really annoys me when I can't buy something without providing a phone number, as the only one I have is for my cell phone. I don't want any sales calls during business hours, while I'm debugging a complex piece of code. Usually a commercial web site will include a phone number for sales calls, and few if any input validation routines will flag it as bogus. Let 'em call themselves. If they really have a valid reason to contact me, I'm hoping that they'll give up and use the email address I provided. I can deal with that when it's a good time for me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Do they do callback verification? If not, just use a bogus number. If you want to take it a step further, lookup Novell's number and input that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thank you.. I put order in today. Still don't know why I couldn't find it when I logged into Novell before. You have extra Good Karma points in your account as well. -- j "Its like a song I can hear playing right in my ear That I cant sing I cant help listening" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You can get one here: http://shop.novell.com/DRHM/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayProductDetailsPage&SiteID=novelleu&Locale=en_GB&Env=BASE&productID=110497000&resid=M0f9WAoHAkIAABhABrEAAAAE&rests=1230472200254 Could I ask why you want one? I got one to try the installation support. But no go. I wonder if I bought sles I'd get bugs sorted. I mean just for me. And without hours (days!) on bugzilla. Does anyone have all three? Versions? open, buy a dvd and enterprise? Luv L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ummm... 1.1 is a really *OLD* version. ;-) Are you say you can't find the DVD's to buy? If so, you couldn't have looked very hard. Go to the download page of www.opensuse.org.
