Anne, If I were a suse user, I'd certainly be looking for alternatives.

I have tried suse, and the thing that seems to be missing is the equivalent
of livna, freshrpms, et. al. If there are lots of 3rd party repos out
there with pre-built binaries for suse, they are not getting much
publicity.

Maybe you'll be able to get all that 3rd party stuff on suse via
Windows Update soon :-).

(Actually, it probably won't be named suse very long - they'll have
to change it to something like Linux.NET).


I imagine that there will be some super-site that will distribute suse.net and windows.net code for the "cross platform compatibility" phase that will probably take place.

Since Novell originated the active directory idea and somehow Micro$oft walked away with it and put Novell in a bad spot, it surprises me that Novell is walking into this hornet nest once more. At least they are guaranteed that their patent for stupidity will not violate any patent from the Micro$oft camp which they could pursue against Novell otherwise.
