Actually, you can get the discounted (i.e. reseller) price from the followiing
company listed on th "Distributor's" page on SuSE's web site:
Kudzu Enterprises
2222 West 94th Street
Bloomington, MN 55431
Phone: 952-881-9303
info@kudzuenterprises.com
Don't bother looking at their web site-- it's been under construction for
three years. Call them. They don't have any requirements (like Ingram
Micro's $100 setup fee), but they don't accept Purchase Orders, so it's a bit
of a trade-off there. However, you can get something like a 20 - 30%
discount, then sell to your customers at list.
They also sell a lot of other Free/Open-source Software related things--
including other distros. Great guys.

He said he couldn't answer that, I told him sorry, but I couldn't work
for him then.
