CHINESE SUSE?
Hi,
I came across a Chinese Linux vendor called Linpus Technologies Inc. who are based in Taiwan, and have operations in Shanghai. The reason the reminded me of SUSE is they seem to have started with an emphasis on handling natural Chinese language as SUSE did with German.
You can read about them here:
http://www.linpus.com/aboutus.html
Although their distro is the official Linux of the Taiwanese government, they specialise in things like netbooks, tablet PCs, phones and the like. Acer use their distro on their tablets and netbooks.
The download is 421MB for the .iso but takes a while because it is on a slow server (180KBps).
I have just burnt the ISO but haven't tried it yet.
I thought that it might be interesting as I don't have a tablet or netbook, and it is supposed to run on an Intel X86 platform.
There is a downloads section on the website.
Just thought I would share for those who like playing without paying  
EDIT:
Almost forgot!...............I believe the underlying distro is Fedora.
