No real difference.  The SUSE Professional version will have some
non-free software packages that can't be included in OpenSUSE but all
the stuff that people use are in the free version.

BTW, The official spelling is now SUSE and not SuSE.  It's taken me
awhile to get used to writing it in all caps after years of doing it
"correctly" :-)
