I used OpenSuSE when its desktop was KDE 3.5.x, of course i tried KDE 4.x.x version but i dont like it, i dont like newest GNOME either.

Now i use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my desktop computer with Unity :-) (now i like it)

In servers i hate debian based distros… sorry folks! I use CentOS because i see its more logical and easier to handle, and of course it have long support ;-)

Yep! I have it running in VMWare Player just fine. 12.3 M1 even includes the VMWare Tools – no need to install them.

When I think about suse, the first thing comes to my mind is rock solid stability and zypper. As long as these 2 exists to produce the image of Opensuse, existing users will be happy and attract more users. (As it did me)

PackageKit needs a lot of work. I remove it straight away otherwise it always inteferes with me using zypper as PackageKit seems to always have it locked.

YaST & zypp are SYMBOLS, defining OpenSUSE good enough.
Leave & let die would not be a wise option…

Scott Boston, you couldn’t test Fedora 18 Beta simply because it hasn’t been released yet (shall be available at end of November 2012). Most likely you tested Fedora 18 Alpha or some rawhide snapshot which are actually released for testing and bug tracking.
I’m using openSuse, but Fedora or Ubuntu are IMO not significantly worse. You’d better try them with Xfce window manager – you’ll be amazed.
Frankly speaking I was rather disappointed after upgrading to openSuse 12.2, enough to try Fedora, Ubuntu and its derivatives.

packagekit currently has too many bugs, first thing I disable on new install

Actually, with the ARM project, I think that is exactly is what is happening. I see tablets in openSUSE’s future…
