Long link but a good read. I've been plugging for SUSE since I first used it and nothing can touch it. The only thing that even comes CLOSE is Slackware. SUSE is really getting up to par on the business world, and I think it's great. And look at the screen shot towards the bottom! BEAUTIFUL!
Take that XP, RedHat, Sco, And every other shitty OS.
SuSE has been my main distro for quite a few years, I switched from rolling my own from version 0.0x to MCC to SLS to Caldera to RedHat to SuSE. Right now I'm using SuSE 9.2, Mandrake 10.1 and gentoo-2004.3 and all are excellent. A word about gentoo - I'd heard it was fast and excellent for learning about Linux. The install took ages (about 38 hours on a Athlon 700/256M) with much less than half an hour of my keyboard time giving it hostname, IP addressing etc., if I was hoping to learn about Linux from that, I'd have learned nothing as it did it all by itself. Installing mythtv was as simple as typing "emerge mythtv" and let it do the rest, I thought I'd try something outlandish like mythtv just to see if I would hit a problem - none. Linux has got too easy by and large. Even as early as 1996, I installed linux on a PC in the office, the other guys used it frequently to get stuff on to a Solaris box. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ....
