12/04/2002 Wow! SUSE Linux 8.1 received a "very good" at CNet's latest Software
Head-to-Head review, beating Red Hat Linux. "SUSE Linux 8.1
is an extremely friendly choice for Windows users. If you're switching or
dual-booting, make this distribution your first choice", is article's
resumee.
The review summary:
"SUSE Linux 8.1 offers the best-looking Linux desktop OS around. It's also
easy to use and well organized, and it performs adequately. Its
installation process is so smooth and uncluttered, in fact, that this
alone merits a chance from Windows die-hards. With two
versions--the $75 Professional package or the roughly $40 Personal
version--SUSE 8.1 is far cheaper than Windows and is even more economical
than the $129 LindowsOS. We'd like to see better support for
the GNOME desktop environment, but SUSE makes Linux palatable for any
experienced Windows user and surpasses Red Hat 8.0 in both installation
and interface. If you're ready to switch to Linux, switch to SuSE."
