Yep.. that's why I use SuSe Linux Professional in production environment since version 7.0. Sometimes I find a release less suitable for production purposes (for example this was the case with 7.3 and 9.0.. I did not try the 9.1 yet).
Depending on the hardware. I always use Intel-CPU & Chipsets for Servers (I got 2x Dual P3 500 as webserver). 7.3 was a nice release and even 9.0, but I did install minimal system plus my desired packages. I installed several webservers with 9.0 and had no problem (except the quality of SuSE-updates). I didn't test 9.1 as well, because of the 2.6.x kernel, which is only at it's beginning and got some problems with raid-drivers.
Emmm I had serious problems with samba of the 7.3 release (yep we got Win32 environment, no comment) and I decided not to migrate from the former release. When 8.0 came out I did the migration. I was always curious about non-Intel HW, I have DEC Alpha servers and workstation, Sun SparcStation workstation and now that RS/6000 server. I tried SuSE 7.1 AXP, 7.3 PPC, 7.3 Sparc. Alack, most of these HW platforms are dying as CISC begins to win the battle against RISC. Sorry to be off topic.
