Curiosity about SUSE

Since Caldera gave us the royal digit I've been pretty loyal to SuSE (with
trips to LFS & Gentoo), purchasing 7.2, 8.0, 8.1 and now 9.0. Outside of
some peculiarities of my hardware the worst problems I've found are that a
Belkin KVM switch will prevent install (plug keyboard and trackball directly
into the box to make it work, even though both are detected correctly
through the KVM) and that turning on the firewall will *STOP* all
communication through that device. So if you don't know how to program the
firewall, don't mess with it.
I have only used their knowledge base a couple of times. Most of my
effective solutions to problems have come from this list.
I've been tempted to try the SuSE Macintosh version for my PowerBook, but
have no problems with the Gentoo I have on it.
Do any other distros than Gentoo and SuSE have both PC and Mac versions?
In Harmony's Way and In A Chord,
