OpenSUSE, Anyone?

[Ken Leyba]

Maybe not "0wn3d" but defaced.

I'm using 10.0 RC1 as I type (home), I haven't used 9.3, I'm currently
using Mandrake 10.1 Official (work).  I'm impressed as a desktop user,
my home system is a 3.0Ghz Intel BTX CPU/motherboard combo and
everything worked great.  The desktop works great, though I've only
been using it off and on.

On servers I either use RHEL or CentOS.  However, I'm trying to decide
whether I should go RHEL or SUSE on a Computer Science lab I'm
replacing.  Currently it's running Solaris 8 on Sparc and my choices
are Solaris 10, RHEL or SUSE on either Intel or AMD, depending on the
Workstation vendor I choose.  A few months ago it would have been RHEL
or Solaris on Intel (Mandriva became a no go for me).

Anyway, I'm waiting for 10.0 final and I may switch my work machine to
SUSE if Mandriva 2006 doesn't impress.  Both come out on the same day
:^)

Anyone catch the interview with Gael Duval in Linux Format magazine? 
Whew, not impressed.  Enough to make me have second thoughts of using
Mandriva.
