Re: Bad fonts in opensuse 10.2


If you have both 10.1 and 10.2 it makes sence to use the latest one.
10.1 will be outdated 8 months earlier then 10.2. That means that people
will have 8 months less pleasure of their OS before they are confronted
to update.

Why would you NOT want to run the latest when you are going to install a
new version anyway? When you said you were going to offer 10.1 and 10.2
I asumed that they do not have anything installed.

Why would somebody go for 10.1 (or earlier versions) when 10.2 is
available. The moment 10.3 comes out, I would be sugesting 10.3 _for a
new installation_. Obviously when you have SUSE installed as always "If
it ain't broke, don't fix it"

houghi

unless you got burned by the catastrophic first release attempt of 10.1.
that's a case where waiting a few months gets you the 'remastered' release
which works great, but installing the freshest release gets you gnashing
of teeth.

hurts to say it but it's kind of like apple hardware. maybe more
appropriate to say - 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but wait 3 to 6
months to make sure it actually ain't broke before you try to install it'
.
