Biggest difference: with SLED you have a stable solution with a
predictable road map that is supported for 7 years by Novell.

OpenSUSE comes with only 2 years of 'support' (=updates).
Furthermore, there are some stuff included that are not part of the openSuSE Distro (codecs and a Novell-tuned OpenOffcie for example). those things are not opensource, or at least the modifications by Novell are not.

Some things you would mostly use on servers (as nessus) are missing, as SLED is intended for the Desktop. If you want a real Server Solution it would be neccessary to turn to SLES (SuSE Linux Enterpris Server).

till then,

Can I install SLED on my home computer without paying a free and
it will not expired or stop me from using if I am **NOT** paying subscription fees ?


You can install it for free.
Nobody will stop you from using it if you are not paying the fees but
you will not receive updates.


Kind regards,


Leo
