The only difference I can think of is the administrative
tools.
Redhat uses Redhat-config-xxxx
and Suse uses Yast. Personally I prefer Yast because it has
more modules. However, both tools configure the same things
and modify the same files. If you use a tool like webmin or
Linuxconf, you won't see a bit of difference between the
two distros.
I use the Redhat Linux 8.0 Bible as my main reference, and
its instructions apply to the several different Linuxes I'm
using (more or less).
As Rick said, your main interface will be Gnome or KDE and
the only differences you'll see there is that SuSE provides
prettier eye candy (out of the box) than Redhat.
