Actually they do want to send the box, but it is 9.2 and it
cost $100.00, which I'm not thrilled about. Keep in mind that I purchase
it from Emperor Linux to begin with at a premium cost because they are so good
at hacking the OS for the laptop.
So I'm not thrilled about buying a SuSE 9.2 box on top of that.
