just as a historical note I was involved in the OS selection for that doe machine. the customer insisted we contract to an external vendor for support, as they didn't trust us to do it in house. Suse was selected because RedHat wasn't interested in talking to us - nothing more...maybe a nod to the fact that Suse had done a fair amount of early technical work on amd64.
