I'd love to see you do it :-)  rob dogs they are on eBay.

As for the SuSE.... I'm pretty sure the base system is one CD.  The
rest are additional apps etc that is really just the equivalent of
downloading them from say the Deb repo's.  Deb is the same with the
base on one CD.  With Ubuntu/Kubuntu?Xubuntu etc that is what you are
getting with the optin of downloading whatever else you want.  Pretty
good really because it does cut down on eventual waste - excess CD's
that will eventually find their way into some landfill.... :-(
