Indeed, my 82-year old mother has openSUSE-10.2 running on her desktop PC. She uses the openSUSE-10.2 boot partition for most of her multimedia (family photos, playing videos off the web, playing videos given to her by family) and for getting images from her digital camera ... she also uses it for web/internet surfing, picking up her email from hotmail, playing solitaire ... etc ...
I confess I don't understand these comments that "opensuse is not designed for gramma"

... IMHO (based on real life experience) if openSUSE is properly installed for gramma, then gramma will have no problems.
