Hello, Gerry:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'd frankly prefer to revert to Caldera if I cannot reasonably expect SuSE to fulfill an offer they actually made to me through their 'store'. Perhaps the flow of exchanges on this issue will help awaken the green giant.
I'll give it another week or so and then get on with what I must do to keep a timetable here ...

Thanks, Andre, for your thoughtfulness.
I am debating whether to sit around for SuSE, switch to Caldera, or reorder to a US address. Seems pretty stupid, when all I am trying to do is buy from SuSE, exactly as I did last year when they had no trouble sending 7.3 to me, and I rather obviously had no trouble receiving it.
We Canucks are quiet folks, but we do not handle uninformed arrogance very well at all.
Thanks again ....
George

I find that the local university generally gets SuSE releases in a reasonable time. They bring them in from the US. YOu might want to call a university close to you and see if they have any instock???
