Sorry for the delay, lost a load of emails which now I have found. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I have been a SuSe user for a while, basically because of Eastern days :) I quite like Gnome though, mind you haven't looked at the new KDE.

Hi Guys,
Appreciate you are all busy people, but why would you choose SuSe first over Redhat? I am not questioning your opinion, just like to hear reasons to grasp a better understanding. I like SuSe, just because I have used it over the last few years, but as you know just installed Redhat and like that as well. Perhaps I am not using the full potential to understand benefits from one distro to the next.
Because it's European, not American. Because it a lot more stable, as in they take a lot of care ensuring packages are tested, which is a lot more than can be said for RH. It's closer to the LSB There are a lot more packages with it. For a reason to choose Red Hat: there are more RPMs for RH than any other distro. Cheers, Laurie. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Laurie Brown laurie@brownowl.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ main@lists.alug.org.uk http://www.alug.org.uk/ http://lists.alug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/main Unsubscribe?
