what if ISO download "rights" could be granted to members that 
subscribe to such a service. I know that, if available, I'd be 
downloading ISO's all the time, and updating (once I get bored of SuSE 
8.2, that is)

ISO's for updating purposes would be VERY handy in my case, because 
maintaining the linux boxes I have here at home is a bit tedious, 
seeing as that there is no network setup, and the only new access is 
dialup (I'd be at school for downloading the ISOs)

This is provided that I get used to GNOME (or redhat's hacked-up KDE)

> BSware is simply Redhat with all the current updates on the CD's.
>
> You could download Redhat 9, burn the CD's, and then download and
> install a few hundred megabytes of updates to get current.
>
> Or buy/download BSware 9, burn, install, and you're up to date.
>
> You can even update an earlier version of Redhat or BSware with new
> CD's.  Simply select "update" (or upgrade?) instead of install after
> booting from CD.
