As I've mentioned before, I've tried several older versions of SuSE, and was frustrated by things like a significant portion of the text in man pages and documentation and install screens were in German. Is that still an issue? Also, I despise YAST, and any configuration tools that are database-driven, like Windows' registry. Can one configure the system manually without screwing up things? > Dennis Maher gave the BLU a case of beer for last year's BLU BarBQue.
