    It's almost certainly set up on the honor system.

    Professionals and/or busnesses who have the money will pay to get the support.

    Folks too cheap to pay will either run this without support (and thus cost SUSE/Novell no money) or switch to another distribution which is suitable for their purposes.

    Of course if SUSE learned that some big corporation was using the evaluation version they might be able to pursue legal action.
