InfoWorld: Product Reviews: Linux distribution SuSE graphics sparkle

“… SuSE Linux 6.0… fills an important niche between Red
Hat’s novice-friendly distribution and its noncommercial,
experts-only offerings such as Slackware… the clear Linux choice
if you need superior graphics performance.”

“If you’re looking for an office suite, give the included
StarOffice 5.0 a try… the new release is a solid, worthwhile
clone of Microsoft Office 97.”

“Although there is much to like about the SuSE software, the
best distribution feature might just be the 450-page manual… The
section on rebuilding the kernel and its accompanying driver
modules is the best coverage of the topic I have seen.”
