I don't mind _some_ tinkering to improve things, but like you, I'm not 16 anymore and I have a business to run, so this I will remove from the list of my opensuse replacements. >> I tried several other distros, e.g. Mint and CrunchBang. >> Ubuntu was very easy to bring up, but when they switched >> to the Unity desktop in release 10, I decided it was time >> to move on.

I was very impressed with FreeBSD when I tried it out 1 year ago. The only thing missing for me was that in order to get anything faster that G-wifi, you had to run a small alpine VM with passthrough, since native drivers did not exist for FreeBSD. I tried to run a snapshot version, and faster than G-wifi did work, but something else was unstable, so I had to leave it for the moment. The laptop I tested it on was a (then) 1 year old Asus ExpertBook B5, and everything except the wifi worked flawlessly. The Freebsd handbook was absolutely amazing. The documentation is in my opinion, far, far ahead of linux. Suse does have some good guides actually, but I feel BSD is better.
