i just think that professional is better since it has so much more stuff, less need(if any) to go to 3rd party software, its everything+kitchen sink+garbage disposal and trash compactor. if one doesn't need the manuals though, I hear that the "upgrade" version of suse professional is about the same cost as the personal version, but has everything(and can be used to install a fresh system, they don't lock you into an upgrade-only installation) most of the documentation is available online, but sometimes its fun (for me) to browse through the books. I've read good things about suse 8.1, though I think Suse expects me to pay to upgrade from 8.0 to 8.1 which I think is sorta unfair. Perhaps the online updater will be able to provide a migraiton to 8.1 at some point from 8.0. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
