Novel offers stable business version of linux and also contributes to bleeding edge free version (aka opensuse). What you get is your choice I have known of their existence but have never had the opportunity to work with any of the commercial products until yesterday. I was replacing an old PC in a lab at work. The PC was running SuSE 9.0. Our sysadmin had a spare license for SLES 10 so he gave me that to put on the new PC. In one hour I was able to install, configure the net (including masquerading) and get the printer working. I told our sysadmin how impressed I was and he said that's what you pay for in the commercial version.
I do believe our function when we use an opensource product is to take advantage of a free product (and almost nothing is free in this world) and contribute in any form we can You forgot number
So, for work, it certainly is nice to have something that just works and is easy. For home, I can live with the inconveniences that come with the bleeding edge. 6. complain when it doesn't work :-)
Example 2: I miss this feature that was in the previous version. You mean like "I want YAST 1 again" ?
I just installed 11.0 on my son's computer so I have only seen 11.0 for a very short time. So far the only two negative things for me were the organizer that crashes on startup and Dolphin that reminds me too much of the Mac file manager. Neither of these were a problem since an update fixed the organizer and Konq is still there. So, for me, I am satisfied with 11.0 and my 7 year old son sure is having fun with the Planet Penguin game.
