When I first tried Debian, I was very impressed with it. Apt-get is really great and with Unstable you have all software available for you.
However, I use my computer for the desktop. And then I installed SuSE and I found that everything worked lots faster. Logging in, for example, but also scrolling through webpages and such. It felt like SuSE added a turbo to my PC. Additionally, to reconfigure X in Debian (change resolution, for example. I brought a new monitor) you need to know that you need to run dpkg-reconfigure -y xserver-xfree86 or something like that (package name, and -y to make it ask for data again). In SuSE you can do everything of system configuration with the great YaST program. Finally, SuSE autodetected my soundcard, and it is the first distribution to make cd playing work for me.

This all is why I voted SuSE.
