SuSE, openSUSE 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.

RE: Linux has been ready for a long time

i'd appreciate any comments on the better Linux TV apps out there.

TVTime is the best TV viewer for Linux (and even Windows) IMHO. Check it out: http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/.

However, if you want something more integrated to your desktop , you could try KWinTV for KDE or Zapping for GNOME. I could never make KWinTV works acceptably for me, because of PAL-M issues (I´m in Brazil) and something is always wrong with its configuration (even the CVS version, which has a new name that I forgot). This is very sad because I´m a KDE-oriented person. :-)

Zapping blends wonderfully with GNOME, although it is one of those remaining GTK1 apps along with XMMS and some others. It is very good and was my choice before TVTime.

And if you don´t like any of these, you always can use the good old XawTV.

Cheers,
