At the risk of sounding like a smart a&&, I shall start with the obvious:
1) Your PC 2 has a processor that is 20% slower than PC 1. I would expect approximately a 20% slower boot time, etc. Get a faster processor.
2) PC 2 has only 256K memory? Let's hope that is a typo (256M, maybe?). At any rate, more memory is a quick and easy way to improve performance under any OS. More memory means less swapping to drives, etc.
3) Review your installed packages on your Suse. Did you just accept the standard installation, or did you add/subtract packages? I would go through each package with a critical eye. It does take some time. But you might find that you have all manner of drivers installed that are trying to activate, timing out, and soaking up time and resources for things you don't have (Bluetooth, IR drivers, PDA connectivity items, modems, etc.).
4) Also, review your boot log. Anything popping up with any errors or indicating that it is timing out? It may be an item I described in #3, or there may be a configuration problem that is preventing something from operating optimally.
Those are some places to start, at least. I suspect others will also have good ideas of where to start...
