Hi, its always the same. Noobs come and ask which distribution is the best. The correct answer for this question is no linuxdistribution. There are many different of distributions for a many different kind of people. When someone come to me and ask: Which Linux distribution should I install. He get no answer. Try out what kind of user he is and which distribution is the best for him. Not say openSUSE is the best! Help him to find the distribution for him. Maybe it is openSUSE maybe its not. Maybe its fedora or debian, thats better you helped him as give him a false answer. Later he said, fedora or debian is my distribution but an suse guy helped me to find it out. The guys from openSUSE project are good friends There is no answer about which distribution or which desktop enviroment or which editor is the best. She always good every has good sides an bad sides too. br gnokii Am Freitag, den 10.07.2009, 11:52 -0700 schrieb Kevin Gallagher:
Hi.
Since this is a marketing mailing list, I thought it would be a good forum for my marketing question.
When someone comes to me and asks "Which Linux distribution should I install?" I answer openSUSE without thinking. The next question is harder; "Why?"
So that is my question. Why is openSUSE the best distribution?
I know what my answers are:
YAST - I believe it is the best administration tool out there.
LSB - If you have ever tied to compile a complex application from sources on Fedora, you will understand why this is important to me. http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/LSB_Distribution_Status
So let us make this a little bit more granular:
Why is openSUSE better than Fedora? Why is openSUSE better than Ubuntu? Why is openSUSE better than Mandiva? Why is openSUSE better than Slackware? Why is openSUSE better than Debian? Why is openSUSE better than CentOS? Why is openSUSE better than Android? Why is openSUSE better than OS X? Why is openSUSE better than BSD?
