Plese share your comments ;-)

It is a little expensive a $598 dollars!!

DOH!

It's good for 5 users and has 5 years support tho

$598 dollars :cry:

i think it's the same thing than other distros, and enterprise clients? what? comes with StarOffice or OpenOffice instaled? wOOOOT :rolleyes:

enterprise clients? ok you get some pack from the internet compile an old kernel (but still working) like the 2.4.19, and sell it for $598? what the heck, i'm sure if you get StarOffice and all the rest of the packpages (paying offcourse) for separatly and get a respectable Distro, you can do a better buss than spending $598...

Enterprises make changes to cheaper OS because they want to low they costs the most...

and i don't speak only for SuSe, i think RedHat do the same thing and make you pay a lot more over the "real price" of the things

Just my opinion... Thx

pd: my english is not the best, so maybe it's get a little confusing in the paragraphs, but well i am trying to improve it :study:

Hhmmm

The SuSE Linux Desktop is available in sets of 5, for $499, and includes
one-year maintenance agreements, as well as licenses for the enclosed third-party software -- CrossOver Office, Agfa fonts and Sun Microsystems Star Office. The "Installation kit" -- which includes the software, is available for a one-time price of $99 for unlimited installations.

$499+$99 :cry:

it is expensive for users like us. but the it folks in company thinks that when a prog is expensive it is good they come to that assumtion without even checking the programe so it is somehow good.

Actually it's a set of 5 for $500. So each is $100 no? If yes, well not bad.
