Aside from 30 day installation support, what do we get from a purchased
DVD versus the downloaded version?
The Box comes with 2 DVDs. The first one is the downloadable version
(but supports both i386 and x86-64), the second one contains the
packages that are additionally on the ftp server. So, you get
convenience instead of downloading packages yourself.

The Box also contains some 300 pages for the Installation Manual,

I also miss the SUSE decals they used to put in the boxed edition...

so do I.

At least they were something to put on your laptop that could easily
turn peoples' attention and make them ask questions, even when the lid
was closed. Very similar to a german shepherd dog that you take out for
a walk. ;-))

And I assume they were not to expensive to be given to a paying
customer, as well. ;-))
