Hmm, I'm a nerd, not a geek. can I still play?
If you cannot play then SuSE will go the way of Progeny and Stormix. A user-friendly distro is high maintenance and thus the company requires considerable numbers to support it.
SuSE 8.x requires more than the small number of geeks to survive, nerds are necessary, and at some point plug 'n play non-geeks will be come necessary as well.
It's that bottom line economics thing.

I wish people would stop using derogatory terms like "geek" and "nerd" about people who use linux. I find them personally offensive. I mean, just because I never go out, and my skin would need intense UV light to become pasty, and I spend all my time in front of a computer, and the only women I see have compression ratios, and...oh, wait, never mind :)
