Of course.

Same as RedHat.

It is rumored that Linus favors it over all others, even though
Transmeta is a big RedHat user. VALinux used to use SuSE's kernel
releases with RedHat's distro release, which seem to be better
tested than even RedHat's. And one of the primary reasons ReiserFS
was adopted into the stock kernel was thanx to SuSE's support.
SuSE's products are a "kitchen sink" of everything you could ever
want, usually 5-10 CDs in a full package. Unfortunately, they don't
product a 100% redistributable distro, not even in a single CD
form. They produce a number of non-OSS components, so they aren't
as "GPL-anal" as RedHat or Debian.
