"Of all the community distributions, probably the least known is openSUSE. After two and a half years, the distro is not only still working out details about how its community operates - including how its governing board is elected - but also struggling to come out of the shadow of its corporate parent Novell, much as Fedora has emerged from its initial dominance by Red Hat. With the pending release of openSUSE 11.0, community manager Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier suggests that the distribution is finally starting to get the recognition it deserves. In the middle of preparations for the new release, Brockmeier took the time to
talk with Linux.com about the priorities within the community and its relation with the larger world of free software."

why use suse when we don't want to use yast...
easy opensuse have one of the better polished kde desktop
nice documentation
a lot of package
stability
one click install
also opensuse adhere to FHS
don't follow the standard is often good...
arch linux don't really use standard filesystem... and that allow to boot very quickly...
don't forget the standard os of the majority of user is windows...
