Since I never had much use for SuSE, anyway (let the flames continue),
my decision a year and a half ago to run Ubuntu for everything I do is
looking better and better. I have to use RH at work, and I keep a
CentOS partition on my home system for compatibility, but I don't have
a need for ancient software (RHEL/CentOS) and FC is frequently just
too bleeding edge. Even Ubuntu's development projects are pretty
bloody, but they seem to convert that to something usable a little
quicker.
So long Novell. I can't say it's been great to know ya.
