Hey all,
One of the questions I am asked frequently: What makes openSUSE unique among Linux distros?
I think it'd be good to have a list of benefits / advantages to openSUSE. Note, not looking to say we're "better" than other distros, even if we are ;-) just how are we actually *different* since we ship about 98% the same software?
Obviously, I've given this some thought, but I suspect that more heads are better than just mine on this one. As we're approaching the 11.1 release, I know that this question will come up again quite a bit.
Thoughts?
Best,

The two things I most hear people mention, either to me or just in general in the #suse channel are YaST and zypper (or libzypp I should say.) And there's also comments, mostly positive, about our Desktop Main Menu (in GNOME at least, not sure if KDE's is distinct from others.) Anyway, those are the obvious ones from my point of view. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
