Hey all,
One of the questions I am asked frequently: What makes openSUSE unique among Linux distros?
It's a good, solid, well engineered, polished distro. It's good for beginners because it's very well documented. The deciding factors that influenced me when I chose SuSE 7.2 as my first distro were: (a) I could buy the distro in a box from a local retailer with CDs, 2 printed manuals, and 90 days installation support. It's still possible to buy a box via the internet, with a DVD, 1 printed manual, and 90 day installation support. (b) The distro comes with electronic copies of manuals, including: The openSUSE Start Up Guide KDE and Gnome Quick Start Guides The openSUSE Reference Guide The KDE Guide These are available in many languages, and are an excellent source of information and education about the openSUSE distro. The above documentation is supplemented by the openSUSE website (http://en.opensuse.org). -- Denis Leslie Can we live on our own renewables? - http://www.withouthotair.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
