Kinda silly isn't it!?! I garner the Novell has followed RH's lead and decided not to supply boxed sets that can be bought at the local area Bestbuy/CompUSA/Pick_A_Store. Instead they partner up with DIgRiv and charge rates for Over Night shipping determined by distance? When the USPS rates are a lot more palletable? Novell really really makes me wonder sometimes. I'll stay with OpenSUSE for now, thank you very much. Cheers, Curtis. - -- Spammers Beware: Trespassers will be shot, survivors will be shot again! Like the song say: "Everything's 'Zen'...
