It provides an easier way to install software and drivers. Opensuse now also have the osi(#305582: Off-Line one click install (MSI for Linux)). And they also have the 1-click uninstall program(Uninstaller for Windows, AppZapper for Mac OS X). Add this feature can make opensuse closer to the mainstream operating systems. It can be combined to provide a web site like http://www.apple.com/downloads/ (http://www.apple.com/downloads/) that everyone download osi package is a good idea(#306924: Software Store like AppStore/Android Market). This can be more effective marketing opensuse, but also more acceptable to all novice. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308434
