One sentence? That's a big ask :)

It simply works, beautifully.


I'm writing this from 12.2 KDE Live CD. Not trusting Windows with my
internet banking and wanting to take the latest release for a spin, I
downloaded from my local mirror. I think it took about 15 minutes or
so while I made a cup of tea. A couple of minutes to burn the disk,
reboot hitting F12 and voila, welcome to openSUSE. Looking gorgeous as
always.

In a couple of seconds I find the 'configure desktop' option and the
elegant popup shows me that the 'mouse' option is indeed in 'input
devices' (superflous information on this occasion, but handy when
you're looking for something ambiguous) and I switch my lefthanded
mouse to the reversed button setup that I prefer after years of
sharing computers with righthanders.

Is Firefox working? Of course. Version 13, pretty good. Let's listen
to something on YouTube while doing the banking... surely I'll have to
install video drivers and plugins and stuff? ... nope. Great sound and
perfect playback out of the box. Job done quickly and efficiently.

What was that you were saying about Linux being a headache? Sorry, I
couldn't hear you over the sound of openSUSE being awesome.
