SuSE does provide x86 ISOs for download. However, they tend to wait for a
while after the retail release before they make their current version
available. Given that DSL is available in Germany for < 1/4 of the price it
is here, I suppose they're trying to get some return on investment when they
release a new version rather than simply having everyone download it.
