During installation, the user may choose among KDE SC, GNOME, LXDE and Xfce GUIs. openSUSE supports thousands of software packages across the full range of Free software / open source development.

openSUSE is fully and freely available for immediate download, and is also sold in retail box to the general public.
It comes in several editions for the x86 and x86-64 architectures.
