I'll be more than happy to...
Take it off your hands.
IF Dave says OK? OK?

I am still waiting...
A good friend will come and bail you out of jail ... but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun!"

Good to know. Thanks
I'd feel funny bitching about not getting something for free, but on the other paw, I'd feel similarly silly not mentioning it. For the time being, I'm going to assume that it's a long slow roll out.

It's described as Novell Technical Resource Kit
Contains Suse 9.1 Professional, Suse Linux Enterprise Server, and a bunch of other stuff. Since Novell bought Suse, there has been no mention of Suse's upgrade policy and my 8.2 is working nicely so I haven't been in a hurry to upgrade. This package let me spend my upgrade money on a DVD rather than another software package. Assuming that I actually get it of course...

Arrived sometime last week.
Since I don't check the P. O. Box every day, I couldn't tell you exactly when.
