Yeah, I think I have a SuSe disk from like 2001. I did make some money on that Novell stock when they bought SuSe. The road trip thing sounds interesting to me. I want to see what they have to say... I'm not expecting anything amazing, and I am Debian dedicated but am open to seeing what else is going on.

Hans if they send swag, do you think anyone would care? I'll turn it over to you if they send anything! Unless it is disks for the installfest. I believe they are sending over disks too.  :)

P.S. Getting the hardware for the install server project.
Discussed this last night with Drew and Hagan.

I was wondering the same thing, are they even relevant still?

I can't remember the last time I've even heard a tall tale of a business running SUSE, let alone anyone I know.  I remember a coworker being as frustrated with Ubuntu as I've been last year, and trying it out.  He apparently ended up back on ubuntu by the end of the weekend denouncing it as *a mess* until he could find another escape hatch.

I'm still fighting with Mint Debian after 2 weeks, sorta got it happy, but the package repo in testing leaves much to be desired for properly defined dependencies and broken my packages at least a few times since getting a usable desktop after a week.

A friend keeps telling me redhat and it's bastard children spawned aren't so terrible anymore, might actually try fedora or cent after 10 years of bitterness from my last attempt still.

Figure there's gotta be something better, but seems not.  To each their own devil when choosing the road less traveled, ie. linux.

I haven't used SUSE in many years. Think I would still be welcome? :)
