Better yet...instead of roses at my funeral, bring Gentoo CDs...bouquets of Gentoo CDs.

Although I havnt been using Linux long, I've always liked the look of SuSE. Now I've installed it, I like the way it works too :P

I started with OpenLinux from what was then Caldera Systems. I had NO problems. Before I decided on a distro to try, I spent many hours (from a Windose install) researching Linux boards, looking for the distros with the most probs, and the least, and OpenLinux had very few, compared to other distros (three posted requests for help in two years on my fav board; all posted by me as I hadn't used CLI in many years). Then Caldera Systems merged with SCO, and promptly did a header off the deep end of a dry pool! When SCO removed Linux from their product offering, I switched to SuSE.
I've used OpenLinux, SuSE, and RedHat. I prefer what OpenLinux gave me, but no longer offers (time to boot about 5 minutes less than SuSE). RedHat sucks big weiners. SuSE is tolerable. But SCO is as bad as, if not worse than microsoft, so I use SuSE for now. I'm looking as a source-based distro called SourceMage. One of these days, I'll d/l it and say "to hell with all others, with the possible exception of LFS".

i have been a fairly loyal user of slackware. been using it since version 8.0, currently on 9.1. haven't upgraded my computer since i left my computer at home. i regret that decision, if i had known that there was rj-45 ports in my apartment in pa, i would of brought it.

however, i don't feel overly loyal to slackware. it just seems to fit me the best. in fact i have been considering other distros, like debian and gentoo. since they have a much more mature updating system.
