suse 8.0

Notfromkansas · 03-13-2002, 04:23 PM

Does anyone know when the suse 8.0 distro will be available for download? I just can not seem to find that information on their site.

Furthermore, does anyone know if the suse firewall can be downloaded for free?

I hope that someone is able to help me and I thank all who do in advance.

the iso won't be available ever. the boxed set will be on shelves approx. april 22nd.

Then, I guess, I will not have the pleasure of trying the suse distro. How sad.

they're not a butch of volunteers, like the deb's. they have to eat and keep the lights on, etc.

I know and find it quite understandable. I was not complaining. I was merely expressing my discontent with the fact that I can not afford to buy it and thus will not have the chance to try it.
