Subject: Linux Technical Resource Kit Available

 

 

Dear Linux Professional,

 

We are contacting you to inform you that the Novell Linux Technical Resource Kit is available for order once again.

 

As you may have heard, we experienced an overwhelming initial demand for this kit, and quickly exhausted our inventory within a few short weeks of its availability. Now we've managed to produce a few more.

 

However, the quantity is very limited - and initially available only to those on the kit wait-list.

 

An exclusive order site will be available at http://www.novell.com/community/linux/order_limited.php until the end of Tuesday, August 24, 2004. Remember, that the offer is available only while supplies last - so please visit the order site as soon as possible. After that time, any remaining quantity will be released to the general public.

 

To make sure that we have enough kits for all on the wait-list, please refer anyone else interested in the Linux Technical Resource Kit, to visit [url=http://www.novell.com/community/linux/order.php]http://www.novell.com/community/linux/order.php sometime during the middle of next week.

 

As mentioned on the original order site - the Novell Linux Technical Resource Kit contains over 10 GB of licensed and evaluation software on 3 DVDs. The Kit includes:

 

- SUSE Linux Professional 9.1 (Bootable Installation DVD)

- SUSE Linux Entreprise Server 9 (ISO Installation Images)

- SUSE Linux Professional 8.2 (Installation ISO images for use with Ximian Desktop)

- Ximian Desktop 2.0 Evaluation (ISO Image)

- Red Carpet 2.0.2 Evaluation (ISO Image)

- GroupWise for Linux 6.5.1 - Server, Client & Messenger (ISO Images)

- Novell Nterprise Linux Services 1.0 (ISO Image & NLS Companion CD)

- And more...

 

If you have any questions about this offer, please respond to this e-mail.

 

Sincerely,

Novell Linux Community

ok i tried Suse 9.1 professional (thanks novell for the dvd's) and i was impressed mostly !

 

first impressions were that its a nice distro, i havnt delved deep into it but what hit me straight away was this

 

* mp3 support built in, no need to go find the dumb plugins

* ntfs read support built in, very neat

* mozilla is shipped with plugins installed, extremely neat !

* automatically resizes your ntfs partition so you can install suse during the install phase

 

kde is the default :(

 

(i love gnome)

 

i will play with it some more and try and give more thoughts, in the meantime i'm typing this in fedora core release 2 :P

 

cheers
