For me, it was spot-on -- it suggested SUSE and Fedora.

2. Huh. Never heard of Mandriva.
SuSE is a suggested second choice, and that's the other partition on my computer.

One I never use anymore. :-(

7. I already use Suse and it picked up on that
there were about eight distros that were a perfect match.

8. I use and love Fedora, but was recommended these:
1. Mandrive
2. Xandros
3. MEPIS
4. Linspire
5. SUSE

:wtf:

(6 was Fedora)

In short, it's spotty. :)

9. Hmm...
It gave me a few "perfect" matches:

Ubuntu
SuSE
Mandriva
Kubuntu

and gave me Debian and Fedora as alternates.
