This is a desktop comparison of Red Hat Linux 9 and SuSE 8.2 Professional Edition. We have used Red Hat Linux 8 for all our work since last fall, and installed version 9 as soon as it became available. However, we have not been fully content with Red Hat, so we gave SuSE 8.2 a try when it became available this month.

Thank you for reminding me about Gaim being able to contact Jabber server using a separate plugin. Can it also use SSL?
Red Hat sure has two open source PDF viewers. Both of them have problems opening PDF files, but mostly either one works. Sometimes both of them fail. However, I was pointing out that Red Hat refuses to include any shareware applications that are not open source. I don't actually see how that is to the benefit of the ordinary user that needs to collect them separately.
MP3 (and any other download as well) is an issue when you go company-wide with Linux. Imagine how this conversation goes on:
Secretary: "Hey, I can not play my music files with my PC."
You: "Oh, it's no problem. Just login as root and download the MP3 plugin from the Internet."
... get the point?
