    Personally I hate this deal and I dont think it will end any better than
    the destruction of both companies. Novell has proven to me time and time
    again that they dont know what they are doing and I think this deal should
    be squashed while they still have time, unfortunately, no ones going to
    listen so I will say this, I will continue to be faithful to SUSE because
    of SUSE. I use SUSE for everything, from Webservers to running streaming
    servers to desktop to firewall. But I dont trust Novell, I will never
    trust Novell and I do hope that Novell learned from its many mistakes in
    the past and dont screw this up because for me this will be the last
    chance novell ever gets from me. To you SUSE/Novell guys, please do not
    cut retail distribution of SUSE Linux because i for one like having my
    CD's and DVD come on a box, downloading ISO's and FTP installs are for the
    birds.
