Only in German - yes obviously, as it's the German spelling reference. Only for SuSE - no. > I personally think that the combination wikipedia/google is > much better than any normal encyclopedia. Especially the mathematical > and scientific sections on wikipedia are superb. Maybe, but I'm unconvinced. There's a market for both, and open source doesn't deliver any interactive encyclopedia like the one I was referrring to. However you missed the point: Companies are starting to not only release their products for 'blows but also for Linux. The commonly found attitude "I use Linux, therefore I shouldn't need to pay anything for my software" is *not* conducive to Linux on the desktop.
