Sort of. You can *not* download iso-files and burn your own CDs (Suses
yast program (hardware detection and more, I think) is not GPLed). You
can do an installation over FTP, though. But that requires of course
that you have a (good) net connection on the machine that you are
going to install it on.

I have never tried SuSe. Learned from Debian (v 2.1).
