After a quick play with a Knoppix Live[CD|DVD] to whet the appetite, so as to say, I'd agree that that should be the recommended course, simply because Novell have cut a deal with Min. of Ed. to make boxed versions of SuSE available to schools at no cost. What level of support is offered by Novell in exchange for the money they extracted from the public purse is - to me anyway - an unknown quantity. I wish I knew. -- CS
