Thank you for the heads-up, and...
I find there's something vaguely disturbing about personal and
professional editions of the same software. I wonder if
commercialisation is the route to propriatisation. I wonder if the
original intention is to open up proprietary thought. Somehow i think
that original ideas often get lost along the way.
I wonder if closed and open source will continue to live dynamically
alongside each other, like they always have.
Don't forget, though: if people/companies don't like the
commercialisation, they can always switch to another distro. Therein
lies the beauty of Free software.

Hi there,
This has more to do with the fact that the "Big Red N" is pushing
hard to get SuSE to the top of the charts.
Check out Novell's site for loads ....and I do mean LOADS (~10GB or
so) of free software as well as eval vers for download--Novell as
well as SuSE oriented.
Once you have the "personal" ver, just install apt4rpm for SuSE and
go to town with "upgrading" your distro to the pro version.
You also always have the option of doing an FTP-based install of
"pro" or downloading all ~4.5GB of data to burn your own SuSE 9.1 Pro
DVD--many choices and options on hand.
Cheers!

The SUSE LINUX 9.1 Personal CD is available for download at:
http://www.suse.com/us/private/download/ftp/personal_iso_int.html
file name: SUSE-9.1-personal-x86.iso
Just pick a mirror close to you. It's a 702MB single CD, and it
installed
easily for me. I managed to find rpms for the extras that never
came with
the cd. This file is NOT the live-eval version, but an installable
one.

Hi Rob.
There will be Suse available, and there will be empty disks
available,
and most likely there will be a super-burner set-up with 4
simultanius
burning dvds and a large disk to store the available isos {this is
under construction at the moment, i will tell you when it is ready to
go}. and no, you can not download suse. The closest place you can get
your hands on a box of suse, that you will be allowd to share and
copy
to others fir free is at NEXUS, http://www.nexuscomputerbooks.com/
I think it is a good choice to start with linux, also it is very good
(suse that is) on laptops.
Cheers

No decison yet, nobody has responded with a preference for the
24th
or 31st. I would think we will be aiming at the 31st or as the only
responder requested the 7th August. This one will be at vfxweb and
the one after at Computer Surplus probably.

Okay, I might have missed this so I'll ask just to make sure.
Have we set a sure date for the event?
Have we a confirmed location for the event?
