Brown, I am using this at work right now! I have to say I am awed at the improvements in KDE4 and of course with other stuff as well.
I am loving it and spending a lot of time pimping it up!

You have to admit it’s very cool, especially as it’s FREE! I like Suse and aside from Slackware, it is the most stable of all linux builds.
The only thing I don’t like is downloading that huge ISO. The entire thing can be burned onto one DVD. It’s definetly easy to use and you can say goodbye to viruses and spyware forever!
I am a Gentoo fan. Talk about hard to install! It literally took me months to learn how to install it properly. It’s a Linux kernel written in python and is to my knowledge, the fastest OS ever.

I seem to remember my brother telling me about how great Gentoo was. He’s trying to get me to switch hehe.

SuSE was the first linux distro I tried. Though I’m a fan of Ubuntu now, I still love SuSE for some reason.
