• Open SUSE vs SuSE Entreprise Desktop
    2 replies, posted
Any of you that tried the SUSE distributions out there can tell me what would be the difference between Open SUSE and SUSE Enterprise Desktop. Thanks in advance
SUSE Enterprise is the desktop that Novell sells to corporations. It is configured to allow full control over many installations to a select few (network administrators). Open SUSE is the community project which is the sister to SUSE Enterprise and thus is sponsored by Novell. It is mainly oriented towards enthusiasts, so it assumes the computer it is being installed on is alone. Also, the development behind Open SUSE is from the community. And thus it is free. Hope that helps.
Along with Enterprise, Novell offers direct support. OpenSUSE is supported through the community.
