Of course you can purchase a nice boxed set dvd with a simple user guide from most anywhere for $59, but to call it "non-free" is just not right! Where is that chooser at so I can get them corrected???

The thing that is being overlooked on the distro chooser is that it
lists both SuSE and OpenSuSE. My understanding is that OpenSuSE is the
free distro and SuSE is the $59 dollar version. So although the chooser
may be more of an eliminator, it does list SuSE under the free choices
too, as it listed it for me.
