As of this morning if you go looking for SuSE.com you now get novell.com. And holy smokes is there a large selection of enterprise software bing offered. I am betting that SuSE/Novell will move the same direction the "Hat" did. away from the desk top. I just thought some might find this a curiosity. I will be officially moving to Debian as soon as the semester is over and I can get Sarge to access the Internet. I will probably have to set it up the old fashioned way, dialup scripts. I got a little spoiled using utilities like Kinternet and Yast, etc. W. As a fellow SUSE user, I would ask why you think that Novell/SUSE will move away from the desktop - especially since Novell just released the Novell Linux Desktop as a corporate desktop solution? Perhaps you're worried that they will move away from the home-user base? They may very well produce their own "Fedora" stunt. However, I believe they're pretty firmly committed to the desktop - corporate or otherwise. Why would they invest so much money in desktop software (Ximian Evolution, Connector, etc.) if they were backing off the desktop?
