At the meeting last night, we were discussing SuSE and Mandrake, and you said 
that you preferred SuSE over Mandrake.  Can you give me a few of the reasons 
you have for this?  I know it is RPM based, but does it have anything similar 
to urpmi or apt-get for installing software directly off the internet?  
(Ports packages like BSD or any non-distro-included software)  Can you 
compare the layout of the GUI (I assume KDE is the default desktop) and 
usablity factors?  Is there anything broken in the default install (like 
Mandrake and RedHat seem to always be) <- go ahead guys, flame away...  
Anything else you think I should know before I trash my beloved Mandrake 9.1 
install?  

Thanks
Dustin
