For the last 10+ yrs, I have spent quite a lot of my PC experience on SuSE beginning with v4.2.

openSUSE 10.3 was released October 4 2007. A lot has improved over the years and I've seen how it has improved with every new version. My last Linux installation and review was Shift Linux 0.5 RC2 some days back and I was eagerly waiting for openSUSE 10.3 to be released. I have been following the development of v10.3 and installed a few milestone builds on the way to the final release.

What's New

There are a plethora of improvements in openSuSE 10.3. I wouldn't go through all the changes, since the link explains everything. But I wouldn't mind mentioning my special favorites in this version. 1-Click Install, Official Repository List, Improvements in YAST, Compiz-Fusion, KDE4 Games. These are some of my favorite enhancements in openSUSE 10.3.

Installation

Over the years, Linux installation has simplified and become user-friendly. SuSE was probably the pioneer in simple, intuitive GUI installation through a tool called YAST.
