I'm sure everyone is sick of reading reviews of Suse 9.1 by now but perhaps this one is a little different. This is not an ordinary review in the sense that I don't provide lots of colourful screenshots, or ramble on endlessly about the included software versions and other trivial things. Written from the point of view of a Debian user trying to switch to an "easier" distribution, I concentrated on how Suse stacks up compared to some of the traditional Debian strengths.

Packman is not the oh-so-great repository. As far as I am concerned, I reffered to Packman because of the video playback-stuff. That is what Packman is reffered to in 99% of the cases, if I assess this correctly. There wasn't more criticism in this review beyond video playback and the "icon" issue...
Btw, this icon *does* make sense, even if there are no updates available. Only, the author was kinda in a rush to get his review out of the door. Next time, actually try to click the icon, then you will find that there is a use to it beyond indicating the availability of updates.
