Looking to get openSuSE 10.2

[J.Michael]

I am looking to get SuSE 10.2 (first linux i am getting)
I plan on dual booting with Windows XP(on that now)
I was wondering is there a place I can get a copy of opensuse 10.2 on a cd or dvd for either free or $2.88(all I have in my paypal account lol). I been trying to download the iso files but the downloads keep failing for me.

Thank you!

are you using a download manager? I had the same problems until I started using one and since then, I can download anything. Sometimes it takes a while, but it works for the most part all the time. Flash FXP is a great one in Windows. It is 25 dollars to register, but it was worth it, in my opinion, I like how the program functions and it does what it should do. Perhaps you could go to DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD. and buy it there, but it is 7.95 for the cd/dvd.

You don't need any money to d/load suse.

Just go here -- link -- and d/load it straight from them, or from bittorrent.

download.openSUSE.org << openSUSE free

[J.Michael]

Yeah i know I can download it for free, but if you actually read my post, I been having problems downloading it so I am looking for get it on a CD/DVD

[smolloy]

There are places you can buy it (check the ads on distrowatch.com), but maybe not for as low as you want.

Ubuntu ships CDs for free if you're interested in trying that.

[J.Michael]

Yeah, I can ubuntu in 6-10 weeks(thats how long it takes to ship) I think I am just going to do some webdesigns or some website coding jobs and get money that way if i can't find it for 2.88 or lower on ebay, i saw one last night for 2.94(bIN and shiping) need 6 cents lol

If I were you I would use the torrent.
If you don't already have a p2p client, Azureus is a good one.

[J.Michael]

I tried torrents too, used Azureus, opened port, runs like 5kb average... lol I have DSL but a low connection(i hate where i live) 768k is my connection lol use to have 3mbps until i moved
