No, i think its SuSE.  I've had the misfortunte of using 9.2, 9.3 &
SLES9 recently, and its the most unstable, buggy distribution i've ever
used.  Oops left & right, lockups, utterly unintuitive menus and tools
(yast).  And this was on multiple boxes, so it wasn't a hardware issue.

Thank you!  It is nice to hear I may have not been the reason for a screw up!  
(It comes SSOOO natural to me!)
