Death Match

[Ruediger Berlich <nospam [at] suse.de>]

Hi all,

with regards to my little talk at the meeting in April (8th) I had
suggested to Richard to include a short presentation of new features of
the next version of SuSE (due in a few weeks). However we agreed, that
this might look too mutch like a sales-pitch. No matter, what I'll do, due
to the company I'm working for, it always will become something like that
:-)

Now, here is another suggestion : The Linux Distribution Death Match . The
goal is to find out, how user-friendly each Linux distribution is on a
fully supported PC (i.e., it should be clear upfront, that all components
run with a specific Linux distribution). Then three new users, that
haven't had any exposure to Linux before (but should've got a bit of
computer background - e.g., they should know, what a partition is, so they
don't have to read the complete SuSE manual in advance) should test all
three Linux Distributions, e.g. RH, SuSE and Debian. Finally, each of them
gives a rating from 1-6 in predefined categories for each distribution.

I believe, that that is neutral enough to make it independant of SuSE.

R.
