Well, I would just say to the rants about no .iso's is this plain and simple.
Get the f**k over it. It's not changing..it's the way it is. And they are going to continue to do it this way so they survive and are able to pay for all the development they do.
Wasting everyone's time on this list bitching about something that has been in effect for 2 version..is just beating a tired, dead old horse.
Cheers!

and what exactly are those that want to try suse out but dont want to invest in because they dont know if they are going to like it or not suppost to do? And what about those that are shit ass broke suppost to do? They move on to other distros. And SuSE looses a potential customer You mean to tell me that you want to sit there and watch SuSE lose potential coustomers everyday?? Someone on this list made a very good suggestion: Have ISO's but keep them a version or two behind the current. My fight here, is not totaly 100% personal, if it was 100% personal then I woulda shut up along time ago. I talk to lots of people on irc in and out of linux channels that would love to try SuSE, but dont for the simple fact that SuSE doesnt have ISO's. and they dont know how to do a package by package download and they dont know how to install from an ftp. These are the people I fight for. And as for the decision to remove the ISO's from the ftp was infact for development costs But I see this hurting them more in the long run then what its gonna help them.
