When SuSE was in charge of SuSE a preorder resulted in the package

When I bought 10.0, it arrived at my home at 1:45 PM, on the day of
release, less than 12 hours after it was shipped.

Mine got here pretty quickly too. I forget now who I ordered from, but it
was suggested by a posting to this list. It wasn't Amazon. As I recall,
Amazon was a bit cheaper, but took quite a bit longer to get their orders
out.
