Either that or you've got quite the ego to think that you're smarter than ESR.
That implies that ESR is particularly intelligent. Frankly, I haven't seen any evidence that this is the case; most of his writing is riddled with logical errors and flaws. There's a reason nobody really listens to him anymore.
I like SuSE but...

I really truly like SuSE. It seems like a great desktop and great server OS.
With one exception... YAST!! Yast sucks. It's slow, it won't keep it's hands off your configuration and if you try to break away from it, it causes dependency hell like mad.
So I'm slowly becoming a debian convert. SuSE sure is simple to install easy to use once it's installed but waiting for yast to connect to an inconsistent mirror is just too much. Don't even try to upgrade from major version to major version through yast or the CDs (has anyone ever successfully done this?)
SuSE was definately a key stepping stone for me to get comfortable with linux, but now that I'm knowledgable enough to do most system management, it's time to move along.
