In my guess the current Novell Linux strategy is "the more publicity the

there is only a small market for the box. But a huge spreading of the box

Well... perhaps. But they could sell instead the book. Even a book with a
DVD, or with a magazine that includes the DVD :-p
Novell's home is USA. So I understand the strategy is to "home" SUSE
Linux there too now.
There seem to be totally different market situations for SUSE Linux in
Germany/Europe and USA.
In Germany, meanwhile it is a must for every Linux paper to include a
SUSE-10.1 DVD.
In USA, it seems one has to pay like for adverising for inclusion of
SUSE-10.1 DVDs into magazines.
So the "Linux scene newspaper publicity" is a good next goal over there.
