The Enterprise stuff has extra fruit (including the fancy desktop).
Way more than OpenSUSE if you are looking for that sort of thing.

It takes a lot of work to get OpenSUSE to do much of the same stuff
as Enterprise; and there may be some things in Enterprise that you
simply cannot do because of proprietary components. I'm being vague
here because a) I don't know exact details; b) there are lots of
small differences; and c) you can go to the SUSE (Novell) web site
and find the details.

Download OpenSUSE and compare it to Enterprise (desktop). You can
then judge if the difference is worth it.
