  1. 1 The IT Guy

    I will be the first to admit that I'm not a linux genius or even an experienced user but Suse has always been high on my list for distros. It runs great on my Thinkpad X60s with full wireless support out of the box. I have an enterprise copy but that’s just because I felt like supporting the cause. Ubuntu would be a close second for me. The polish on Suse is nothing short of what you would expect from a corporate distro and it makes Redhat look cheesy to me.

    Hi The IT Guy,

    Thank you for your comment, I completely agree with you that SUSE is outstanding Linux distributive. No doubts. But every thing has it’s own benefits and disadvantages, in regards to openSUSE it means that this OS is the most suitable for Desktops and/or laptops only. It’s my opinion of course. :)
