Mr. Invisible Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Cool! Is that (free shipping) only within the US, or global?I got free shipping on this giveaway to the UK if that helps prathapml. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 OK, that does help, thank you! Also, has it arrived for you yet?I ordered it a week ago, and I have no idea what time-frame to expect it to be delivered - the email (as above) has no info regarding the waiting time.

Mr. Invisible Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 It took about three weeks to arive.When it did, it is no larger than a standard envelope (no padding), so I guess there is no real postage costs for Novell to worry about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalfgrey Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Is there a Remote Desktop (the MS one, Remote Desktop Connection in XP) client on linux platform? If so, is it available in both rpm and deb formats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Is there a Remote Desktop (the MS one, Remote Desktop Connection in XP) client on linux platform? If so, is it available in both rpm and deb formats?You can use the "rdesktop" client - its an XFree86 dependant program which won't require any of the other GUI widget libraries to be installed. Other than that, some VNC clients for the linux platform also have the capability to connect to Windows Remote Desktops.@SimonSaysIf your order has been accepted, you'd have been sent a confirmation email to the address you gave while registering.@FamerDid you order it from that same site, (for free) and how many days did it take for delivery of the DVDs?
