Thanks to Jerry and all the others who reponded to my request.  I got a
lot of useful opinions and information.  I also printed out and read the
XFS blurb from the CGI site.

Yesterday I did the default SuSE 8.0 Pro installation on an older
machine, and the ext3 fs was installed.

Today I plan to do a manual install on a PIII - 1 Gig machine, and I
will install ext3 and then convert to XFS this time, once I've learned
more about the conversion process and the kernel patch.

Thanks to all.
