Opensuse. I am working on a friend's computer and I want it to be simple. I'm a ubuntu noob myself and I was so sick of windows and their back doors and
viruses and snooping, I loaded Ubuntu into my own laptop first to see how difficult it was going to be and I found it simple, so I loaded the office and home
computers with it. I haven't had calls from the office to fix viruses or anything else for the last 5 months.

My biggest complaint with Ubuntu is the time I spend researching various bugs and glitches I have to fix to use Their system... not to mention the frustrating
needle in a haystack coding crap that I sometimes send days looking for and it cripples my hands. I have psoriatic arthritis (the family curse), and carpal
tunnel from typing for 50 years, I know it's so 1990's but I WANT TO POINT AND CLICK!

Opensuse looks amazing and it's very light and simple like Ubuntu and unlike Windows, the elephant in the room!
