I had been using Linux for a while.. mainly for servers at work etc... but Suse 9.x was the distro that finally made me switch my desktop OS at home... I don't want to spend my weekends compiling kernels.. or sorting out dependencies to get things running...
a. it's not what I would consider productive time
b. I'd prefer to be spending my precious free time doing things I enjoy
So now I have Suse 10.0 up and running and am loving every moment:).. if Novell and the Suse community keep on their current course I can actually see Suse making some serious headway into Microsofts turf...
