Well, as a member of the documentation team, maybe I can add some more information. :) It's true that there is no description of the desktop environments in the *printed* manuals anymore. However, there is a completely separate book about KDE[1] and GNOME[2] (around 300 pages).
Do you know our Quickstart Manuals? For users who just want a small, concise overview, we created the Quickstart Manuals (12 pages) for KDE and GNOME, see [3,4].
As we generate our books for openSUSE and Enterprise products from mainly one source, it is not always easy to make a good selection. Restrictions like time, pages, wishes from PM, etc. force us to think carefully what should go into the printed manuals and what can we leave out. :-)

I just checked my 10.3 boxed DVD 1 and I only found the release notes under DVD:/docu/ It would be if they could easily be found by someone looking at the DVD on Windows. Are these manuals available anywhere after installation of 10.3? -- Carlos FL "It is not worth an intelligent man's time to be in the majority.
