Why I use it? Personally, I find SUSE to provide the best balance between a developer station, desktop OS and server. Also we heavily use SUSE on servers at work. Development at work is mostly done on SUSE and Debian systems, though we're thinking of also adding Gentoo into the mix. No, we'll probably won't add Ubuntu as my company does not target desktop Linux but industrial embedded systems (running on Xilinx Virtex, ARM, MIPS, IA32, etc) so Ubuntu has nothing to do here
