Maybe they will start doing "Gold Mastered" versions of all openSuSE versions about 1/2 way through it's lifetime .
Ben, You missed the point. I am not saying don't have updates. I am saying why doesn't OpenSuse have a package system that works. Mepis, Kubuntu, Mandriva, Fedora update time: 1-15 minutes. OpenSuse update time: 60-90 minutes. I am currently running all of these, so I know the times. (Except OpenSuse, which was way too slow to keep using.) If I want to add a new package on any of the systems listed above, I can have it downloaded and installed in 20 minutes tops, usually more like 5 minutes. With OpenSuse, after 20 minutes, the repositories are about 33-50% scanned.
