Well, there are a number of users who should buy the Novell release, like those who are dependant on the manual, are bound to phone lines for Net. access, or are newbies. I have clients who are in all 3 groups!
Don't forget those users that want to see the product continue to be developed, and want to vote with their dollars. For some of my clients the cost of SLES is easily justified. Others, are much smaller. But I insisted each of them buy the "Pro" edition in the past just to send the dollars in SuSE's direction. The landscape is littered with dead distros from people who wouldn't know a business plan if it bit them in the ass. I don't expect this thinking from Novell. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
