Shipment of Linux Office Suite 99 Delayed
-----------------------------------------

OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA - October 12, 1998 - S.u.S.E., Inc. announced today  
that the shipment of Linux Office Suite 99 will be delayed.  Originally  
scheduled to ship during the week of October 12, S.u.S.E. now expects the
Linux Office Suite to ship closer to the end of October.

S.u.S.E. cites a bug in Applixware as the reason for the delay.  The
problem was corrected before any CDs were shipped.  S.u.S.E. plans to make
another announcement soon, once an exact shipment date has been
determined.

Linux Office Suite 99 is the most comprehensive collection of fully
integrated, easy-to-use office tools for Linux.  The Office Suite includes
the most recent version of Applixware, as well as many other features. 
The numerous applications range from word processing, spreadsheets, and
graphics programs to a database, desktop fax, and backup utilities.   
Email, Netscape, web publishing, and programming software packages are
also available in the Linux Office Suite.

S.u.S.E.'s Linux Office Suite 99 is compatible with all major
distributions of Linux and includes the base system of S.u.S.E. Linux 5.3
for users who are installing Linux for the first time.  The Linux Office
Suite 99 is priced at $79.95.  Customers who own a previous version of
Applixware can purchase the Linux Office Suite for an "upgrade" price of
$34.95.  More information is available on S.u.S.E.'s web site at
www.suse.com.
