I sold my 1,500 shares on friday @ 9 1/16 after attending a Windows NT Server class. The NetWare classes were sparsley populated while the NT classes were overflowing. I have worked with NetWare for over six years now and have recently upgraded my servers to 4.11. However, even though it was clearly obvious to me that NT is slow and bloated, the seductive nature of the familiar Windows interface overcomes a lot. Even more of a concern going forward that I havn't seen any discussion on is the Military IT-21 initiative. This is an initiative to standardise NOS's, Desktop software and all hardware. The last word out is to standardise on NT for the NOS, Office 97, and Exchange. Where does that leave NOVL when the the military is going through a massive IT upgrade cycle in preparations for DMS.
Good Luck To All. Better Technology vs Better Marketing
