I hate Yast too because it is slow and it keeps SuSE for being circulated like you can Red Hat [snip], Mandrake or Debian.
Why? You can give it away all you like, you just can't copy the disks and *sell* them. Also, I've never noticed YaST being slow. YOU can be slow, but it's much better now, especially if you use an http server rather than an ftp one. Indeed, I regard YaST extremely highly - it's a fantastic tool. Of course, if you prefer the style of one of the other distros' tools, that's perfectly understandable, but that's not a lack in YaST. And as for its not finding hardware, SuSE (and hence YaST) is, as I understand it, pretty much the best distro for finding hardware so you'd be unlikely to do much better overall by switching.
