The subject is misleading. I read it as if you were suggesting to 
boycott SuSE.


I got quite shocked when I read it.
I like SuSE and I'm pretty sad it is not completely GPLed as eg. 
Mandrake.
When I read it I thought: what did they do more? Is it time to chose 
another distro?

Maybe we can complain with SuSE about their reseller.
I will, I'm one of SuSE customers.

as a side note:

    reply.
-   I was waiting your reply ;)
