Free Linux Technical Resource Kit...

**Cave_Dweller** · July 21st, 2004, 04:26 PM

I just received this E-Mail from Scott Carlson:

Subject: Novell Linux Technical Resource Kit Shipment Update

As you may have noticed, there has been a slight delay in your Novell Linux Technical Resource DVD kit shipment. We had a phenomenal response to this free offer, and have had to adjust production to meet this demand.

In an effort to provide you with the most current Linux software from Novell, and to accommodate the release of a new, yet-to-be-announced Linux product, the decision was made to delay shipment on some of the more recent Linux Technical Resource Kit orders.

As a result, your kit will ship during the last week of July * with the latest Linux software from Novell. We will notify you again as soon as your order is mailed.

We appreciate your patience, and are confident you will find the Novell Linux Resource Kit a comprehensive tool to evaluate the Linux offerings from Novell.

Sincerely,
Novell Customer Communities

I hope mine is late then.

Just sent the following to kwright:

"Hello,

On June 30th I received confirmation of my order for the above. The mail also stated that the order would ship in "7 to 10 business days".

I know you're probably overrun with hordes of geeks taking you up on this kind offer, but I'd just like to find out when the order will be shipping.

Thanks!"

I'll pass on any info I get from the mysterious kwright,

Cheers

Cool, that must be why I haven't gotten mine yet. I'm looking forward to this one.

Co-worker of mine just got his second package in the mail. I think my missus must be hiding it.

edited for exceptionally bad spelling.

**Shard92** · July 23rd, 2004, 03:22 PM

After sending a second e-mail asking for at least some response as to what is going on I recieved a message today saying that my package was sent and I should recieve it in a week. I guess I don't the new package!! I thought they ran out?!?

I got the same email today from Novell. I guess they weren't expecting the rush that they got. Oh well, back to waiting

Mine arrived in the mail this morning. The packaging was somewhat tattered, but the disks were no worse for the wear.

Now I need the time to play with all this stuff.

Thank you, Ju-Leon, for bringing this to my attention.

**gtiseb** · July 31st, 2004, 11:19 AM

Gonna Play this weekend.

**Dark Millennium** · July 31st, 2004, 08:12 PM

Just got mine today as well. (probably arrived yesterday but I ddin't check the mail until today)...

This is sooo gonna be sweet...

**Pinnacle** · July 31st, 2004, 08:30 PM

It does not look like anybody in the U.S. is getting there copy. Maybe they only ran out in the US, while other countries still have a supply left. Oh well, I'm willing to wait if it means getting a newer version.
