Novell SLES for VMware now available for FREE

Some news on the Novell Suse Enterprise Linux (SLES) front.

From yesterday (15/9/10) SLES for VMware, a Linux distribution based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 is available now.  Customers who have purchased VMware vSphere 4.1 licenses on or after June 9, 2010 qualify to run an unlimited number of SLES virtual machines and receive all necessary patches and updates for free.

I personally think this is a great deal, and will be interesting to see where VMware and Novell go with this partnership, maybe lots of joint appliances in the future.
