Actually Suse is the Microsoft of Linux. I even think they are more evil than Microsoft.
They take free stuff, and make it proprietary (You may not freely redistribute or modify SuSE CDs.) Microsoft at least owns the code they're taking proprietary.
Debian is ok, but too hard to handle, and not commercially supported, which is a requirement for AOL.
Now look at Red Hat: They make a pretty good distribution (its only major flaw is the crappy choice of default desktops, which is fixed easily), and everything they do is GPL.
