Personal snipe:
Although you get alot from SuSe, and it is slightly more
user-friendly than redhat, I personally think most of it's nothing more than
bloatware. And Yast/2 is proprietary and a complete pain in the arse to
boot. If it's only SuSE and Redhat, go with redhat. At least there you'll
know your being forced to learn Linux, not locked into something so bizzare
that it takes over 100 pages in a manual to learn it.
However, if you want a real beginner distro, do go with mandrake
(barring dual booting issues). Mandrake is a good learning one.
