So the price savings have gone to the endusers. The total income of SUSE
has decreased, although not as much as expected by Novell. They knew that
there would be a drop in sales. They knew there would be a drop in income.
I think it is amazing that they still make the boxes and I doubt that it
is any real revenue for them. If you want a book, just wait for the SUSE
Linux 10.1 Bible.
After all the good things Novell has done saying that it is going to the
dogs is, I think, over the top. Yes, it is a pity that the manuals are
gone, now can we move on please?
