That's weird.  Only a few months ago, they had several different
distributions, and many boxes of each!
I wonder what happened?

FWIW, the CompUSA on Glenwood Avenue in Raleigh, had box sets of Redhat,
SuSE, Mandrake, Slackware, and even a FreeBSD distro, on the shelf last
time I was in there.  That was maybe two months ago.  I bought SuSE 7.2
from them.
