Stop wondering if Linux is ready for prime time. SuSE Linux 7.1 Professional is here. It starts with the elegant, upgraded graphical YaST2 installation and maintenance utility, which now uses GNU Parted to repartition a Windows drive on the fly. YaST2 recognizes most hardware, as well as offering easier updating and configuration for complex programs such as Sendmail. It can even set up NFS for you.
This version of the distribution (it also comes in a Personal version) is aimed at network and power users. It includes support for clustering and RAID, as well as an LDAP server and ReiserFS journaling file system. You get consumer-oriented support for digital cameras, TV and video grabber cards, as well as USB and the new Cups printing system. DSL Net access is supported, and the 2.4 kernel is now standard. XFree 4.0.2 supports font anti-aliasing for gorgeous text, which, together with the font server for TrueType fonts and the now default KDE 2.01 desktop, makes for a better, faster, more beautiful, and easier-to-use Linux.
The 2,000 applications include the usual server software and utilities, plus consumer software including Sun StarOffice 5.2, KOffice, the GIMP, GNOME, and other desktops. Suse 7.1 Professional would be worth buying just for the amazing manuals, updated for this version. They provide more software tutorials and configuration walkthroughs than any other distribution. You get 90-day support. You won't need it. --Steve Patient

1.0 out of 5 stars
it is very old 2001 release, incompatible and lacking,
By Alex Vox (Winnetka, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SuSe LINUX 7.1 Professional (CD-ROM and 3.5" disk)
This 2001 version should not be offered in 2011. It is not compatible with today's hardware, obsoleted, outdated, no longer supported. If you want a good complete and fresh SUSE linux, get OpenSUSE 11.4 Linux, 4-disks DVD Installation and Reference Set
