First Look At SuSE Linux 8.2

TheMadPenguin writes "Once again I find myself checking out the newest SuSE release, and to tell you the truth, I really enjoy it. My personal computer is running Slackware (yes, I upgraded to 9.0 immediately), and I wouldn't trade it for any other distribution in the world, but I've got to say is that SuSE is still at the top of their game. When you look at all the desktop distros out there such as Mandrake, Lycoris, and Red Hat, they all really have their endearing factors, but they all are lacking in one way or another. Check out the entire review at MadPenguin.org. Complete with screenshots :)"

    It's funny how all dists seem to come with new versions at the same time. Conspiracy? Aliens? Illuminati? Flesh eating spiders from mars? Thermonuclear sharks with lasers attatched to their heads?

    One factor you forgot to mention was me burning CDs of all (ok, well, a lot) of the distributions. The timeline goes like this:
    1. Massive Distribution Version Release
    2. Long Period during which FTP mirrors are overloaded
    3. I decide it would be good to burn CDs
    4. Laziness ensues
    5. I actually burn CDs
    6. as soon as the burning starts, new packages come out
    7. as soon as the burning stops, new distros come out
    8. Massive Distribution Version Release
    9. I cry...
    Note there was no "4. Profit!" in there...

    Does that mean that sometimes it's slow and sometimes it isn't?

    "The only complaint I really can think of through this whole experience is that some of the applications didn't work."

    So nothing major then ? ;)
