    Same here, most of my servers are running either Suse 8.2 or 9, however the
    core server is running SLES 8, which although currently only handles DHCP
    and is the backup server for all other services, will soon be running
    Oracle. If you couple SLES with a maintenance contract you have the perfect
    long term (5+ years) solution with the absolute minimum of downtime.

    Customer support has been excellent, and I recommend SLES to any buisness
    that wants a linux server with the minimum of fuss and need for support. As
    for the price, well most of my customers qualify for educational pricing and
    therefore a very generous discount, even so at the full price coupled with
    the certifications from companies such as Oracle, it is an absolutue
    bargain.

    Regards,

    BenH
