SuSE has always been one of our favorite Linux distributions and this release is no disappointment. It fine-tunes SuSE's offering and bundles a lot of value into one package.

This version comes with five CDs, a DVD, and both user's and administrator's guides.

I work in a genetics research laboratory at an academic institution. Recently, a colleague of mine was having a lot of trouble with his Windows 2000 workstation.

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.

"SuSE Linux 9, the latest release from Nuremberg, Germany-based SuSE Linux, was released at the end of last month. I put SuSE Linux Professional through its paces, and found it to be the most user-friendly Linux distribution on the market. It's not a "must" update for users of previous versions, but it does have some nice perks." Read the review at NewsForge.
