[CLUG] OpenSuSE 10 is out

[adam beecher]

Could someone burn the SuSE 10 Eval DVD for me please? That's the one with
the proprietary stuff on it. If you give me your address I'll send a DVD on
Monday. (Need to buy some. On that topic, any local recommendations for
small quantities? I went with Maplins the last time.)

Thank,
adam
