I run Debian on servers, I find it an excellent distro, but I have not
yet made the jump to Linux on the desktop. I tried Mandrake before as a
workstation but found it to be a bit bloated and slow, so I went back to
XP. I may give SuSE a try then as I have only ever heard good things
about it. It doesn't seem as if you can download a SuSE ISO? If I have
to buy it can anyone recommend a cheap place to get it?
