Novell Linux Desktop (NLD) is a desktop operating system intended for use in the corporate environment. Built upon SUSE Linux, it includes all the features you find there including YaST, YOU, OpenOffice, and all others. What truly sets it apart from SUSE Linux and other Linux desktop operating systems is that it comes with support from Novell. NLD is not sold through retail channels, but marketed directly to Novell customers through the support/sales channel and along with a service agreement detailing the support you expect and will receive. As of this writing, NLD 9 is the latest version of the operating system, but 10.0 is in development. |
