That's been answered already, I would just add that new technologies are tried in openSUSE and then, when proved stable, brought to SLED

2. Who is the people that is using linux?

I don't know everyone that is using linux and it'll probably surpass the posting limit to name them all...
But I can tell you that here the wife, the kid and myself are using openSUSE. I can also tell you I installed it in many more computers and the owners are using it happily.

3. If you had the opportunity to buy a new desktop and a new laptop, with no budget limitations, would you still use linux? would you prefer buying a mac or a windows?
Would it be stupid to buy new hardware just to install opensuse or ubuntu? (Would you do that?)

No, it woulnd't be stupid at all... are we stupid?
See, you can install Linux in new and shiny hardware or in old and dusty, that's one of the advantages.
When I buy new hardware I always install openSUSE in it. If by a chance, laptops normally, Windows was installed in it, it rapidly (and not so mysteriously) goes to limbo leaving the space for the real thing
I just keep the product key in case I need to install a Windows copy in a virtual machine.
Yeah MattB, you're right. I think you just forgot that many, including the people who milk cows, also like the fact that it works, making it easy to achieve uptimes of more than 100 journeys with the jugs on the mule.
