Hi, you get only the live-eval as ISO. Full install is only via ftp. If you need you can visit me with a hard disk and copy it over. It's less than 5G I think. Sincerely, Schlomo Schapiro --- email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.schapiro.org On Wed, 28 Nov 2001, Hetz Ben-Hamo wrote:

Last word on this (for a while): I finally got hold of SuSE 7.3 from Linux Central for $110. They shipped regular airmail and it turned up in 1 week to my mailbox, no extra charges. I still feel that there is what to do about local supply of SuSE in Israel. At the very least, it would be worth
