I am using openSUSE as well. The openSUSE work but the typical login location doesn't work. The login location that works is here. https://forums.opensuse.org/forum.php

I own two computers -- the first is Dell Vostro which is GNU/Linux-only (Slackware 14.1 now) and the second is Samsung Chronos 5 series (Windows 8.1 and Fedora 20 in dualboot). Sometimes I used to work on Windows because of Mathcad which can't be emulated even in Wine and requires Windows machine. That's rather pity for me because usually I can done everything needed in Matlab on GNU/Linux but some people asks only for Mathcad solution and there is the only reason why I can't drop it.

you do not need need MS office i am sorry open office and libra do both of what office offers and lighter.

i know i have both open office and libra running on this computer. I only have libra for the one fact it has one file format that i can find that open office dose not.

OO/LO compatibility with MS Office file formats is laughable. They're not even close to viable alternatives if you have to work in those formats, which are pretty standard in the working world.

I posted this before: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ml#post5420021 maybe you overlooked it or did you try and found it wanting?

That's why there's WPS.

EDIT: Forgot the original reason I posted here! Linux exclusive here. Once in a while I'm forced to use Win7 at work, but as much as possible I don't use it.

and\or, vm

Well, yeah, but I still classify that as a dual boot.

I never had good hardware for vitalization (until just recently) so I would never have conceded it that...

I, of course. I wouldn't have it any other way. I had to abandoned stuff that was windows centric only, but I got over it. And because linux was my only OS, I've learn a hell lot on linux from simple to more complex tasks. I also dabble with freebsd and android. I stayed within the linux/unix eco-sphere. NO WINDOWS ALLOW!

"I said the sparrow, with my little point and click arrow"

Linux only! Yes!

I'm back to having a hackintosh as well as a Linux box

Pretty much 100% Linux both at home and at work.
At home I have two desktops that run Xubuntu as well as a dual boot laptop. Windows is just there to take up space.
At work, we have a bunch of Linux servers and other dedicated machines that run Linux. So I was surprised when I was hired that they gave me a Windows laptop. I tried to use it but kept getting annoyed. Finally, I complained to my supervisor. "So. Fix it" he said as he handed me the Linux install CD. And Fix it I did. When the IT manager saw what I did I told him that I simply had turned it into a real computer.

At home, I had to resort to putting Puppy on one of the desktops after the kids managed to get it so infected that I couldn't get it to take a Windows install. Then, with the end of support for Windows XP, I converted both desktops over to Xubuntu. That was almost two years ago and there is no looking back. Even the wife and kids have no problem using the Linux machines.
Linux rocks!

linux only here too.

I only touch ms windows when I have to troubleshot, add hardware internally and externally, install drivers and apps for the family computer.
