Interesting!
I thought Suse already came attached to magazines. I use one-such to
resize NTFS partitions when the need arises (as it did on my
Toshiba laptop).
APC Mag is an Australian general PC magazine. Under my left hand I have
DVDs:
June 2005 contains Xandros DesktopOS 3
July 2005 contains Solaris 10 (yeah, not Linux bot OTOH not Windows
malware either).
Aug 2005 contains Fedora Core 4.
Woody was on an earlier one (before Sarge was released, but IMV Sarge
would have been better as by then Woody was getting a little aged).
Ooh ahh McGrath's out.
