I recently picked up a copy of SuSE 9.0 Professional. I have never used or been familiar with a SuSE product before as I've only used Mandrake, Red Hat, and a bit of Debian. After using Red Hat for a while I decided to evaluate SuSE and I am now sorry for not having tried it sooner.

I guess when it comes to proprietary Linux Suse is O.K., but I'll be sticking with Fedora and Debian. I know this isn't everyones cup of tea, but if I'm going to be using proprietary software that has strings attached to it I'd just assume stick with Windows.
No need to flame about being a zealot, if Suse, Xandros, Lindows or some other flavor of proprietary Linux works for you, stick with what work for you. That doesn't make your choice less worthy then mine.
Realize though that some of us have different goals and priorities for Linux and just flat out aren't interested in seeing a future where all Linux Distros are semi-proprietary.
