Items of Interest:
All about OpenSuSE.
Also, SUSE Linux distributions,
The OpenSuSE project is a community program sponsored by Novell.
Promoting the use of Linux everywhere, this program provides free, easy access to openSUSE, a complete Linux distribution.
The openSUSE project has three main goals: make openSUSE the easiest Linux for anyone to obtain and the most widely used
Linux distribution; leverage open source collaboration to make openSUSE the world's most usable Linux distribution and
desktop environment for new and experienced Linux users; dramatically simplify and open the development and packaging
processes to make openSUSE the platform of choice for Linux developers and software vendors.
SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, powered by SUSE LINUX is an enterprise-class Linux distribution that can
be deployed as a general-purpose desktop platform or tailored for use in information kiosks, call-centre
terminals, or stations for infrequent PC users. It also provides an alternative to high-cost UNIX-based
engineering workstations. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, designed predominantly for high-performance data
centres, provides a modern, efficient and secure foundation for data centre computing. It is often used
to facilitate Solaris migration, SCO migration, and other UNIX migration to Linux.
