Ubuntu is easier to use and when you double click a media file it will automatically download the required codecs.. OpenSUSE, on the other hand is advanced version.. once you get familier with Linux then you can shift to OpenSUSE. __________________ My blog :- www.openenclave.wordpress.com

I would recommend you to go with Linux Mint It is Ubuntu + all proprietary codecs, which will help you get with basic things in a breeze __________________ ShutterTux - Photography, Linux & Life! : http://shuttertux.wordpress.com
