I guess you have to pay for SuSe CDs now huh?  They're not even
available on their FTPs, only a README file
(ftp://ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu/pub/suse/README.iso-images.english)
explaining how they "need your money" and to just make do with FTP if
you don't want to buy the CDs.  Seems to me like SuSe is definitely next
in line behind RedHat to go commercial.  I've no problem paying to
support a company like SuSe, but when they come to expect to get paid by
even home users for redistributing someone else's hard work it's truly
sad.
