Suse Linux 10.1 to debut

A final version of Novell's Suse Linux 10.1 is expected to be ready later this month and will offer such features as the OpenOffice.org 2.0 office suite to the latest Firefox Web browser, the company announced Monday. Suse Linux 10.1 will include a firewall, a spam blocker and antivirus tools, along with e-mail and instant messaging clients and multimedia tools such as graphics creation.

A developer version of Suse Linux 10.1 was made available Monday for download. A free final version is scheduled to be released later this month. A retail version, which is expected to sell for $59.95, will be available soon after.

They better hurry before more key people from Novel keep quiting.
SUSE Linux, with all the key people leaving the company should I keep interest in SUSE?

Suse is a great lesson....
...in just how silly this whole open source movement is for the desktop.

Yes, you should keep interest in Suse. It will be yet another great lesson that will showcase another company that couldn't make Linux fly on the desktop because they don't have the common sense to model successful desktop marketing.
