If you're talking about SuSe 9.1, it should be a piece of cake.

yes it is easy to install but once you get past the pretty interface then it
has nothing on windows, linux is just not worth the hassle.

less memory-resident programs, and you won't find a 'blue screen of death'
on a linux machine..............

I'll have to admit that Windows is more user frindly than SuSe Linux. I
have also found that a lot of things are similar to Windows on how they
function too. You'll need a good book on SuSe Linux and Linux in general
they are out there. You shouldn't give up on it.

And what are your credentials that you feel qualified to make
unsubstantiated generalizations of this nature?

for the last 8 years.
I have supported and developed on every flavour of windows that has ever
been released, and have MCSE and MCSA. Also have CCNA, but that doesnt
really count.
I don't feel they are unsubstantiated, just that 'official' figures for a
windows server uptime in a year is only between 86 and 90%, whereas a server
running Unix or Linux can boast 90%+

You didn't substantiate. Much as I expected, you generalize from what you
'believe' you've learned mucking about on the Internet.
More unsubstantiated bs. Our uptime here is 97.5% on Windows 2k (for the
last 4 years, nothing documented prior) Including the time spent migrating
from NT4 to 2000
Sorry, but your bullshit isn't going to fly. From the context of your posts
its obvious you're nothing more than an wannabe. Nothing wrong with linux,
but no point talking out of your ass either.

Typical linux newbie question. :P
Current stable Linux kernel is like 2.6.8
There's just too many distro's anymore to have a clue which 9.1 is.
(www.linux.org lists like 286 distros)
KnowBody plans to try Mandrake 10.1 soon...

The big difference I see between Linux and MS is that there are far far
more programmed solutions written for the MS platform than there are for
the Linux platform. I am not talking about some office products like MS
Word or OpenOffice that kind of programming. I am looking at business
solutions like a Regulatory Management Information System (RMIS) which has
several different flavors written for the MS platform that is a Web and non
Web based solution. I have not really looked for solutions on the Linux
platform, but I doubt that there are any RMIS solutions or other business
type applications readily available on the Linux platform.
Hopefully, that will change as .Net solutions start to move across
platforms and more business solutions are made available on the Linux
platform. To me something that's up +90% and is not running solutions like
the MS platform shouldn't be the determining factor as to what is the
better platform. Linux needs to have business solutions like MS has them
and that's where Linux falls way to short.

Sure, which is why I was trying to steer him into a little thinking, by
asking what he really meant.
I know there was a Mandrake 9.1, and I think a Fedora, as well. As for
the others, I dunno.
Looks like it's about ripe and ready for pickin'.
Mdk 9.2, here.

a lie, as is saying it's more secure out of the box than Windows.
A stock Linux install will have as many security holes as Windows.
