in my opinion Opensuse and SLED is the FIRST distro EVER that has convinced me that Linux is ready for regular user.
Actually, SLED is meant for the corporate world and it has a pretty limited package selection compared to the Full opensuse.
Maybe that's what you meant by regular users. Maybe you were trying not to use the word clueless users? ;-)
I've been giving friends Kubuntu when they want to try linux because totally free, and its update mechanism has been better than zmd/zypp. Maybe I will go back to Suse for these users with 10.2. SuSE's Point Two releases seem to work pretty well in my experience.
I'll add to this if I may. I found out last night that SLED is like M$ XP where it will not boot on a computer on which it was not originally installed. Install it on one computer and try to run it on another and... you get the 2-finger salute. Kubuntu however does not suffer from this M$-inspired affliction.
