are *you* fully independant of anything like your employer, your governent, including Microsoft?
Yes. I don't work for Novell, its competitors, or any prospective corporate contributor. I have no axe to grind, unlike the opensuse contributors who depend on Novell for their paycheck. I like opensuse because I am able to install remote servers using text mode and ssh, without any hands on hardware access. Debian can do that too, but AFAIK, opensuse and debian are the only ones. I've invested a lot of time learning how to admin opensuse, and by now, I'm good enough at it, that I don't want to switch to Debian. But if I had to, I could.
