I've never liked any Rehat Linux they've always been bloadted and slow.
Worker, 1.5 seconds on your hardware is slow, notepad and word pad both start in

This thread is probably going to turn into a oooo use-this-instead-of-that thread.... so i'm just going to put mine in.
go for suse. (although i'm a little biased on that because no other linux company offered me free stuff like they did and no linux distro handles like it). I think i should put in the fact that the free stuff came AFTER i was in love with suse :D.
and one more thing, if you use xfce, almost any distro will function faster than KDE and GNOME. I use a 2GHz machine with 256+512 of ram and it still strugles (about 2.5-3 seconds) with opening simple stuff like kate (edior).
BTW, novell is giving away another resource kit for free to anyone wants to try out their software. dont have the link. but i think you altually had to receive an email to get it. not sure though.
Lead Head:
I am a big fan of SuSE too, 1 main reason is because the install setup is very easy to use with people who hae over 128MBs of ram and at least 500MHz CPU, If you meat these requirements it turns into a graphic install. Ubuntu is good for beginners but suse is good for people who know how to use linux but dont want something complicated

It takes me about two seconds to open up GNU Emacs (in X), but then when I close it and open it again, it pops up in no time atall.
Does the same thing happen for you ppl with gedit?
Does the same thing happen in Windows (try it with something like Firefox)?
