Re: SuSE Linux 9.2 Released as free download

I'm downloading this right now. It's not the live eval (that's in another directory on the FTP site). If you go into 1386/9.2/iso you see two files. A mini Install and 9.2-FTP-DVD. I read the readme and it says this is the same as the boxed version so until it's done and I burn the DVD I wont know if its basic or Pro.

Keep in mind, though. While the download is free in order to use Novell's update service I'm sure you need a valid serial which I'm sure you can only get by paying for the product.

Still, a good way to look and see if it's worth your while. I've checked out 9.1Pro, Novell Linux Desktop (same Kernal but fewer extras than 9.2 Pro), and the 9.2 Pro Live Eval and it certainly impressed me. This will probably be the first Linux that I'll run on a regular basis. Up until now I've always said 'good OS but not ready for prime time'. Not quite sure if it's ready for prime time yet, but it's certainly very usable as a desktop OS now for someone a bit less than a computer guru.
