“If there is one thing I can say about SuSE Linux, it’s that
they know how to put together a desktop distro. This has been
evident for quite some time, and nothing has changed. Their new
Office Desktop release is built upon the solid foundation that is
SuSE’s desktop expertise.“I don’t use SuSE as a desktop anymore, but I did for quite some
time. It was for one reason that I decided to leave them for
another OS: I wanted out of the RPM distro business. In a search to
use a more raw version of Linux, I went to Gentoo, then Slackware,
and then finally to VectorLinux. I still think SuSE is #1 as far as
desktop distros are concerned, so don’t get me wrong here. For one,
I think SuSE’s included package list cannot be beat as far as sheer
quantity as well as diversity. Aside from being a Linux nut, I’m
also a musician… which is why I turned to SuSE in the first
place: Their distro came LOADED with digital recording and editing
applications. No other distro does that to this day. SuSE will
always be my first love…”
