Well, you have to look at why they are using it. If you look at the storage solutions used by these big companies, there are no drivers for linux. Redhat write drivers for hardware, that means redhat is the only dist that WILL work on their systems. I think if SUSE had a guy writing drivers and creating Install bootdisks that would allow people to install SUSE on systems with RAID controllers they would have a lot more customers.

I'm worried about the latest announcements from the big guys HP and (not yet public) IBM that they will support RedHat Linux. This means that Linux = RedHat for the most people, and where will that put SuSE?
