I'm not dead set on SUSE or VectorLinux and also someday want to try

Try the whole damn bunch. LiveCDs are a lot of fun too.

I've also toyed with the idea of splitting the 20 gig between SUSE and
Vector if that's enough space for them.

10Gb is more than enough for most of the distros out there. The reason
for having large disks is to store photos, music, movies, all of which can
be large.

I had VL 5.1 installed on a machine with an 8Gb disk and there was more
than 5Gb free after installation.
