Go here and choose your server:

SuSE should remain a desktop distro for home use, while Novell will market
their branded SuSE Linux for business. I think it's a dual strategy. That
way, the name Novell will create visions of enterprise grade software,
while us hobbyists can use the SuSE branded stuff without diminishing the
name and reputation of Novell.
