3. KDE development suite, Gnome development suite
4. Perl 5.8.6, Python 2.4, MySQL suite 4.1.1, GCC 3.3.5
+Special programs for handicapped/visually impaired/ppl who can't speak!
What more can anyone want? I think Suse is the IDEAL distro for most of us as most of us have slow/no internet connection.
NOTE: THE SUSE 9.3 PRO DVD DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL PACKAGES. Now, the DVD contains packages for both 64 bit and 32 bit machines. But the 32 bit package is not complete on the DVD, due to lack of space. The 5 CDs are the 32 bit install, and they are COMPLETE & contain many packages that are not included on the DVD due to lack of space.
My elder brother stays in the US and one of my relatives from US are coming here this month with the 5 CDs of Suse 9.3 Pro which I asked my brother to download it for me. WOOOOOOOOWWW! I CAN'T WAIT FOR SUSE!!
By the way, my MOST-HATED distro is Fedora. AAWWWKK!!! No offence intended to Fedora lovers here
