1º - German Magazine --> Everybody know that in Germany, Suse Linux has
been, and it is still, very very popular into their Linux communities.

2º - Default Gnome (amount of packages) in Fedora (I'd bet...) has
nothing to do with the Default Gnomme in Suse ("exiled" on behalf of
KDE, the default desktop).

3º - Curiously they try Suse with Gnome, when actually almost nobody
choose that option in Suse.

4º - If they even do fail to mention KDE, I would swear that the
research is clearly self-interested, probably for internal consumption.
