Suse 9.3

[petard]

Ubuntu is still in it's infancy. Suse has a huge developer following (as do most of the main distros). In the end, they all do the same thing pretty much the same way. I prefer Fedora - but that’s just me and my ties to RedHat. But I'm glad more and more people are jumping into Linux. It can only make it better.

Finally decided to make a leap and purchase Suse 9.3. Installed it on my a machine I only used for development stuff (backed up of course ). Anyways, this is something really different and cool. I have to play with it to learn the many differences (use to Windoze).

Installation wasn't too difficult. Ran into a problem installing OpenOffice, but after 3 hours sleep, I managed to fix it. Detected hardware without a problem. I'll report back and let you know how I'm doing.

Those of you who are using Linux, what was the learning curve like? What was your reason for switching? Also, what have you learned that you found to be "very interesting"?

Thanks in advance,
