The Perfect Setup - SUSE 9.3 and no, it's not a police sting, it's a great howto about how to get SUSE Pro 9.3 running.

Those of you who know me know I run SUSE 9.3 Pro on my laptop, and I think it's the best laptop OS since Knoppix on a hard disk! Fast and loads of features, including everything you'd want in a wireless setup.

Another story about OPENSUSE, and how the Suse Linux 10.0 Beta is available as download from next week on

Very happy to see that our feedback is being taken into consideration, we've wanted SUSE Pro to be totally open and to have all the community support it can get, it is probably the best laptop OS I have every used, and I've used almost 30 distros on my laptops so far.

Take a look at Computerworld's report about how we (the community and employees) convinced Novell to make SUSE Linux open-source
