|It's quite fascinating the simple way it installs

---------------------------
We've placed SuSE 9.3 Pro on several 'hand-built' boxes, varying hardware
and peripherals and all worked flawlessly -out of the box-. This includes
NVidia/ATI/S3 video, wireless NIC's from Linksys, some crazy on-board sound
chips, etc. For a real-world comparison I got this SuSE distro to install
easier than on W2KPro. The defaults will install from just the first CD.
Never once on any of these machines did I have to go to a command line
prompt.
These are office desktops with OOo, Evolution and Firefox - everything a
person needs to do their daily job. Why in the world anyone would pay for
MS XP licenses at twice the cost is beyond me. I even changed the menu and
desktop icons for word processor, spreadsheet, e'mail and internet to look
like MS products and our folks didn't even know the difference!
Sorry, I had to make this distinction since you mentioned 'compared to RH or
suse'. Your results may vary - but not likely. :)
