I've gone back to Ubuntu.

Decided against reinstalling openSUSE on my new build simply because of poor package management and no simple codec or plugin installation.

Ubuntu is a comfy place to be :)

I am actually about to purchase a license to SLED, since from what I read it has a lot to it OpenSuSe doesn't. I think we actually may have a few licenses at work since we run novell netware servers, zen works, etc.

Open suse is actually not a product of novell, novell just tosses some money into it each year. Novell, is also new at the open source market, so I say that a lot of their technologies need polishing. I love the Yast control center, but it needs work, the add software package feature lacks several features, zen installer however nice, also needs some polishing.

I would say opensuse is not a bad OS, but its not great either, and it could be great if they got their act together. Or perhaps if novell did a bit more than just give money to their funding.

I run vista home premium 32 bit version. I was forced to on account of my laptop came pre-installed with it. But I like it, it truely is a very nice OS to look at and the games I play have not had performance hits because of it.

Windows XP Pro SP2. My software actually is Windows XP Pro SP1 but then it upgrades itself :)

I ever installed SuSE 10 last year but I had no idea how to deal with it. I am just a regular user not a programmer, I only can do click here and there --mouse is my best friend-- and not type any commands, thus I am back to Windows :p

What do you think of Windows Me? ;)
