I asked accounts at SuSE for the pricing.
They told me, that their new distribution is only avaiable with a
one-year-maintenance-packet.
costs:
31bit version -> 11500  (11000$) per processor/engine!
64bit version -> 14500  (14000$) per processor/engine!

Thats not the philosophie of Linux.
I think they have to make their distribution avaiable for free download!
