OpenSUSE Linux Rants

Acquiring and retaining new users is how we are able to help grow the Linux user base. Contributing to this requires helpful and informative how-tos, much like those supplied by my good buddy Falko Timme. He has written many many great howtos and tutorials on good, better, best, and PERFECT ways to use Linux. One of his most recent posts includes “The Perfect Desktop – OpenSUSE 10.3 (GNOME).”

Excerpt:

“This tutorial shows how you can set up an OpenSUSE 10.3 desktop that is a full-fledged replacement for a Windows desktop, i.e. that has all the software that people need to do the things they do on their Windows desktops. The advantages are clear: you get a secure system without DRM restrictions that works even on old hardware, and the best thing is: all software comes free of charge.”

Take a look at this well-written post, as it is packed with excellent information. We’ll forgive him for recommending Gnome over KDE.
