Linux for Intel dual-processor systems

[Alan Gore]

Thanks much, folks, for all the information on running Debian on a DK440LX
dual-processor motherboard. I'm wondering: any opinions on how SuSe 8.0
stacks up against Debian on systems like this? How would you compare the two
distros in general? I notice that SuSe seems to come with a lot more
applications, databases, etc. than Debian. Does either of these distros have
a significantly better or more generally accepted packaging scheme than the
other?
