Not sure about the Personal version, but 7.3 Professional has 4 books, smallest
of which is close to 200 pages. They are titled: Configure, Application,
Network, and Reference. The books have been very helpful, I always prefer
something on printed paper instead of man pages. The books still only cover
about 1/10 of what I would like to know though so I guess man -k it is.

Hi all,
I bought 7.0 personal last year. I decided to buy it because I was impressed
with the 6.3 documentation, which I borrowed from a friend; however, I was quite
disappointed with the amount of documentation. For instance, the installation
documentation didn't begin to address the problems I had in my installation, and
the other documentation had nothing about SuSE-specific tools (such as
SuSEconfig).
I'm thinking about buying 7.3, and I'm wondering if the Professional version
documentation is any better than the Personal, or if the 7.3 documentation is
better than the 7.0. I don't need the additional software on the Professional
version, but I'd consider (reluctantly) spending the additional money to get it
if the documenation was better.
Incidentally, I'm a long time unix user, but have no experience as a system
administrator. I have some books on linux and sysadmining, so don't need any
recommendations on O'Reilly-type books, just SuSE documentation.
Thanks,
Derek
