Did you get the Deluxe edition??? This whole discussion on what is in the box is stupid. The only thing that matters is the software. Everyone is acting like a child at Christmas who disregards the present and plays with the box..

Sorry Walt but I disagree, it's not just the software. If I want just Linux - just the software - then I will look at one of the download varieties. If I want printed manuals and decent support I look to the likes of SuSE or Mandriva. I don't like Mandriva so therefore I turn to SuSE. I like to use and set up SuSE. I have always liked the fact that I can refer to a paper manual rather than end up with a migraine because I'm having to read through pages of an online guide on my screen. So now it would appear that if I do indeed decide to upgrade/update (I'm not going to get into that argument again) to SuSE 10 I might just as well download it and go and purchase a third party book detailing this new release. Where is the sense in that for Novell/SuSE? They will have lost a sale because they decided to stop including a printed paper admin guide. Surely that cannot be good business sense. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Take care.
