Here is my first experience using openSUSE 10.3.

First of all, thank you to all openSUSE Developer to build the best linux 
distribution (for me), and for kambing.vlsm.org who mirror the files, so I 
can downloaded it quickly.

After successfully downloaded, I directly burn the DVD and the language add-on 
CD, and install it on my Compaq Presario V3027TU, with Intel Core Duo 
T2050@xxxxxxx, with 512 MB RAM. Installation took aproximately same time as 
consumed by installing openSUSE 10.2. 

As ussual, first thing after installed, I changed the start menu style from 
suse default to KDE-standard. Then, I want to know, if the compiz is now 
better than openSUSE 10.2. I opened YaST, and click /etc/sysconfig editor. 
While waiting for it, I clicked "my computer". I waited for minutes, and 
nothing happen. I click the close button unsucsessfully. So I pressed the 
magic button --> ctrl-alt-backspace. And.... the computer (keyboard, mouse) 
is now totally not responding.

Ok, I restarted my computer using power button, and do other thing while 
waiting. When I look back to my computer, wow, it has been booted. Very fast.
Now, I prepare my stopwatch, and restart again my computer. Nice. It just need 
40 second to boot! It is nearly half from my openSUSE 10.2 which need more 
than a minute!!! Congratulation. openSUSE team has very very success to 
optimise this distribution. When I open a folder full with my photograph, it 
opened and created the thumbnail picture maybe 5 times faster than openSUSE 
10.2. Wow, Very nice work.

Next to try printer, and my Epson Stylus C87plus is known as Epson Stylus C87. 
Good. It was detected as Epson Stylus C80 in openSUSE 10.2. The print out is 
still a little bit too yellowish, but acceptable.

It is the time to check, is my wireless lan switch will not crash my computer 
as my openSUSE 10.2. I turn off the computer, switch off the wifi, and 
restart. Bingo. It is not crashed. I can use my switch now. Thanks to 
openSUSE Developer.

Ok, that is my first try report.
I will continue to try this nice new distribution.

Note: as my openSUSE 10.2, I also still don't know how to enable the "wobly 
effect", which turn our desktop like jelly in KDE. Is anybody know?
