Don't know for sure..have been using the free versions for my day-to-day computing (communications) needs for last 3-4 years and never needed to bother about what these (so called) commercial versions are! :-) Also kMail is improved a lot over these time and it makes my life simpler. Luckily I can use it without having to launch kontact.. Most of experiences are of similar nature... Some OpenSuSE fans said it has better developer tools which maybe true but who cares... till they fix their installer to correctly detect existing Linux partitions :-) In return for using the (so called) free tools, try to educate people of benefits of free tools and trying to implement solutions based on them ... because conscience does not allow to take anything free (as in gratis)... since it costs someone something... sometimes time... Coming back to the topic, I understand from a friend that Mandriva One CD worked great where OpenSuSE 10.3 failed for a new DELL laptop due to the issue of Prop.Vs Free tango...
