Lorin, you can find any kind of person in any kind of place. I try to be always educated in what i write and what to ask, and most of the time i've been answered more politely than i was. But back on topic i have been for the last 4 months a SUSE 10.0 user and while the distro is the most polished out there in look & feel sometimes, having to deal with yast (slow) repository sometimes is a hassle (it's written the right way, isn't it ?). Fedora has (with Fedora Tracker site) a great way to configure yum and now yumex has grown enough to be be really user friendly. I am afraid that after having added to the pool Ubuntu we are left out of alternatives :-) -- nicola .:kOoLiNuS:. losito http://koolinus.wordpress.com http://www.koolinus.net "If privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy."
