I think it is OK to continue here. SUSE is clearly one of the most popular easy distros ot there. I have built my own distro at Susestudio. That is brilliant! Also the KDE implementation is highly praised and is regarded as one of the best. Many a Mandriva user thinks it is better than Mandrivas own implementation.
SUSE is also a leader in interop sollutions with Microsoft. Novell has until recently cooperated and paid Microsoft for this, So the implementation of net technology via mono makes a cooperation with Windows smooth.

These are all very good qualities that make Suse a serious and good and very usable product!

The purists amongst us will claim that Novell has been paying extortion money to Microsoft, and that mono is an attempt to infiltrate Linux code. Given Microsofts hostile attitude towards Linux that is something to take into consideration.

That does not make SUSE a worse product to use though.
SUSE is one of the most user friendly and complete distros out there!
