It is openSUSE since a long time already.

I see a difference. For me, it's YaST ... and then there's the available software. For a long time, SuSE had everything, including the kitchen sink. For a lot of other distros, in order to run some software, you had to build from source. There's other minor idiosyncrasies which push SuSE out on top for me, but I'll refrain from listing them. -- To get something done, a committee should consist of no more than three men, two of them absent. <<< Remove YOURSHOES to email me >>>
