Is it possible to download SUSE 9 and burn it to disk?

Hi all, I heard this was not possible, that you could only install SUSE via FTP.
Is this true? There is no way to make an ISO image? I've been wanting to try suse for some time, and now I finally have the time to tinker a bit.
If there's a link, can someone please show me where?
Thanks,
RANDON

well,
there are quite a lot options to download the suse isos but if they are all legal thats another question

so there are various programs like emule,bittorrent and so on where you can normally download suse 9 and other version isos to burn them on cd.
but the official release directly from suse is only avaible as live cd and ftp install.

just go with the ftp install
its very smooth, you download a bootable iso and then input the tp address (i used the oregonstate one) and the directory the current version is in (i went on the ftp beforehand to find the exact path)
the link would be ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/.1/suse/su.../boot/boot.iso
after you donweload that and burn it to disk its simple
