Interesting.
He used half day to think about effect of one comma. 
Would we ever have something memorable with a thought on sword that will cut 
on a deadline?

I had some time to look at the page, asking myself:"Is it carved in a stone 
that slogan has to begin with 'openSUSE - '?"

No, it isn't. Although, I really like the most:
        "openSUSE is good for you."
Rationale:
- Not used as motto anywhere that I know.
- Answering the question:"Why I should buy openSUSE?"
- Being specific and brief about openSUSE involves words from computer jargon, 
and that really doesn't cut well in public. 
- It can be used as a part of different sentences:
        The power of openSUSE is good for you.
        The <attribute> of openSUSE is good for you.

The only thing that makes trouble (to me); it is hard to start sentence with 
openSUSE. I'm wondering how other solved the problem?

nVidia
        http://www.nvidia.com/page/home.html
They resorted to NVIDIA. 

opensolaris
        http://www.opensolaris.org/os/
They use OpenSolaris.

eBay
        http://www.ebay.com/
Is persistent with eBay.

adidas is now Adidas

Not many examples to look at.
