 Works nice! December 6, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I installed Linux thousands of times in the late 90's. It was a pain to get the OS working on my system. I gave up for a number of years. I recently installed SUSE Linux 10 and I am amazed at how well the installation went, how user friendly the OS is, and how easy it is to use. I would say if you are interested in trying a good quality Linux system to test the waters, this is where you should start. Maybe buy a book on moving from windows to linux as well.
4 stars because I don't give 5 stars.
 SuSE 10.0 doesn't play nice. November 5, 2006

Unlike the four versions of SuSE Linux I've used and liked over the years, the 10.0 release took over my machine as if it were a MS OS. It made the pre-existing XP Home installation unusable. After installing SuSE 10.0, my Win XP OS was history, it was Novell's "SuSE" Linux only. Thanks Novell, I'll never buy what was once a very fine flavor of Linux again.

Can it run linux commands? SUSE: yes SLACKWARE: yes
Can a Windows user use it right now? SUSE: yes SLACKWARE: no
Can I buy it and install it from CD? SUSE: yes SLACKWARE: no
Can it run with no GUI? SUSE: yes SLACKWARE: yes
Sub Redhat for Suse in the table & its the same result.
Slackware is just linux without a gui.
To say having a gui somehow prevents learning the os command line is a crock.
Ask anybody that writes win32 Windows scripts all day.
The windows-like display (gui) is open source and appears in other linux flavors like red hat and fedora core. To say u learn only suse is more crock food.

1. All Linux packages should be able to close X to reveal a CLI. However Slackware uses a CLI for nearly everything it does. SuSE has lots of windows type GUI for nearly everything it does. Linux users never really end up learning Linux with SuSE.
2. The Kernel is what it is called. Slackware actually makes you learn kernel compiling if you want the latest kernel.
3. Linux commands do not change across linux distros. It is all Linux. The problem is SuSE doesn't teach you any of it because it provides you with all the GUI you could want.
I have used SuSE and think it is great if you want start using Linux but you certainly won't learn Linux. You learn SuSE.
 Windows of the Linux World June 10, 2006

It has been branded as such. Windows of the Linux World. It has a huge GUI interface. So why not just boot Windows? If you want a CLI Linux that actually runs more like Unix than Windows then get Slackware instead (and its free).
