I am a soon-to-be SuSE user, having just ordered from a Linux online
store and eagerly expecting the full version (and manual).  I am running
Red Hat 5.2 in the meantime.

I like the idea of cheap updates with no support.  Truly
earth-shattering changes to the distro itself (like stable kernel tree
changes, libc changes, a.out to elf, that sort of thing) would probably
rate a new manual, but in general that will become much less common than
before.  There are lots of packages, though (like XEmacs, Netscape,
Apache, Postgres) that are frequently updated, and tedious to download
(I only have a 28.8 dialup).  There are also security issues.
