I would love if we point people to our app catalogue more in openSUSE, for exactly the reason that users do not switch because of the operating system but because of apps. And, yeah, we kind of have something like that: Try http://en.opensuse.org/Category:Applications and find an actually not so badly organized list. As often, that could make use of more love. Also interesting is http://en.opensuse.org/Application_equivalents which lists alternatives to windows software. regards, Klaas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscr...@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+h...@opensuse.org
