Novell Announces SUSE Linux 9.1

ravydavygravy writes "Novell today released details of the next incarnation of its linux products, Suse 9.1, based on the 2.6 kernel. It will come in both 32 and 64-bit versions, and includes a LiveCD version, to help people convince their Windows-loving friends to make the switch. It'll ship with Gnome 2.4.2 and KDE 3.2.1, as well as demo versions of the text processing application Textmaker and the spreadsheet application Planmaker (from Softmaker - but do we really need another office suite?). Samba 3 will also feature in the default setup."

Dude, Windows is only $199 and runs better. Just go down to your CompUSA to buy it.

To be fair - the choice of end user s/w currently available is... like, "would you like a brown shit or the black one?" :-))
