wrong, I just make a 10.2 computer for my (87 old) mom :-))
Are you saying Justin Steinman could be wrong? Obviously openSUSE is much less stable than Ubuntu non-LTS releases, and also much more difficult to use. At least I can't interpret his comments otherwise. He said more or less the same thing on the Linux Action Show 6 months ago. openSUSE is only for enthusiasts, hobbyists, home developers etc., regular people can't use it. http://www.linuxactionshow.com/?p=64 With friends like these who needs enemies ;-) I think we need one of two things: 1) An explanation, or; 2) Some marting coordination openSUSE.org says we're working to make "the world's most usable Linux", and everytime Novell marketers (Justin Steinman and previously Ted Haeger) open their mouthes they say "it's bleeding edge for geeks only". I think we have the right to be confused. And I think this is a serious issue that needs to be addressed. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
