I sometimes like to use the slab menu in Ubuntu. Nothing major, just a small preference. Never really told anyone that before either.

Actually I am thev opposite, KDE in Kubuntu sucks while its almost perfect in openSUSE.
I prefer Gnome in Ubuntu or Fedora too over openSUSE

I prefer pasta well cooked, and I get mixed responses about that too.

Agreed.

Same as the "usual" opinion here. Kubuntu just giving me headaches this morning so going to install opensuse and see if it's less of a headache to get working than the first time around. W7 was causing problems with my NIC so I theoretically SHOULD be able to run updates after install this time ;P.

SuSe is a whole new ball game especially when things break, fare warning........

kubuntu is much more refined, i just haven't had any issues, opensuse with kde is a headache, for some reason gnome integrates well with yast.

if anyone understands yast i'm sure they would concur.

gnome/ ubuntu is great, it's just that one of these distributions has to have a kde desktop, the best of both worlds.

You should definitely give OpenSUSE a spin. I think it incorporates KDE the best out of all the distributions, though I've only ever run KDE4 on Kubuntu beforehand.

I've been running OpenSUSE 11.2 for about a month and haven't encountered a single issue. My only gripe was getting repos set up with zypper/YaST, but that's because I was so used to how YUM and APT do things.

So, give OpenSUSE a try and have a guide in front of you to help set up repos with extras that you may wanna install.
