SUSE 10.0 at work

Since a few hours ago, I’ve moved from SUSE 9.1 to SUSE 10.0 at work. Didn’t have much time to “get my hands dirty” with it, but so far so good – the installation is simple and easy, everything looks and feels “polished”, and the default KDE theme is beautiful.

Also, I don’t know if it’s just me – I don’t think so… – but everything feels “faster”. And no, it isn’t because the system doesn’t have a lot of installed software yet – it does. It’s just that some fraction-of-a-second pauses that I’ve got used to in the last year using that same computer (with SUSE 9.1)… simply aren’t there. New versions of some software? A kernel better tuned to interactive usage? Maybe it’s several things at the same time.

Oh well, more to explore tomorrow. I’ll also post a screen capture here, hopefully.

    I am installing Suse 10.0 on a VM at my job… this is my first venture into the world of Linux. Being a Windows user, I hope to be able to figure Linux out.
