One sentence? That's a big ask :)

It simply works, beautifully.

I'm writing this from 12.2 KDE Live CD. Not trusting Windows with my internet banking and wanting to take the latest release for a spin, I downloaded from my local mirror. I think it took about 15 minutes or so while I made a cup of tea. A couple of minutes to burn the disk, reboot hitting F12 and voila, welcome to openSUSE. Looking gorgeous as always.

In a couple of seconds I find the 'configure desktop' option and the elegant popup shows me that the 'mouse' option is indeed in 'input devices' (superflous information on this occasion, but handy when you're looking for something ambiguous) and I switch my lefthanded mouse to the reversed button setup that I prefer after years of sharing computers with righthanders.

Is Firefox working? Of course. Version 13, pretty good. Let's listen to something on YouTube while doing the banking... surely I'll have to install video drivers and plugins and stuff? ... nope. Great sound and perfect playback out of the box. Job done quickly and efficiently.

What was that you were saying about Linux being a headache? Sorry, I couldn't hear you over the sound of openSUSE being awesome.

Hiya, websites and blogs updated accordingly. openSUSE 12.2 is part of SFD and we are the only LUG in France hosting SFD. openSUSE 12.2 will be a good breed indeed.
