OpenSUSE, Ubunutu on Windows Network

Hooray! I figured it out!! Now, I'm able to print, share files, etc - between the different operating systems on the same network.

I put Ubuntu 6.06 on my wife's laptop because Windows gave her (repeatedly) the blue screen of death. Now she can do everything winblows can do, but better. She's using Rythymbox for MP3 management, Firefox for browsing, GIMP for image management, GPilot for Palm link, etc, etc. This is great for an end user.

I put OpenSUSE on one of my desktops after I had some problems installing Debian. I can share files through SAMBA. I'm still not convinced and might try Debian again, but we'll see.

I know I'm a geek, but what the hell.
