9.2 is the latest version, I'm running it on my Athlon 64 and my Dell
laptop and I can honestly say it's very very good. I downloaded Fedora
Core 3 the other day just to check out the competition and all I can say
is I don't know why people bother it's not worth wasting bandwidth
downloading it.

By the way SuSE 9.2 comes on 5 CDS (32bit) and one dual-layer DVD (32 and
64bit) also the sources are on another dual-layer DVD. As normal SuSE put
the kernel source on the install DVD/CDs, not the sources DVD.

I can make copies of the CDs if required, but I don't have a dual-layer
DVD writer!! although some brave people on the SuSE list have provided
instructions for trimming down the DVD to just 32 bit or 64bit
installations to fit a single layer dvd.
