Hi Reginald...About Growth >>NOVL is a growth company, therefore it should invest all avaliable cash internally to finance growth, especially considering it competitive situation.<< Novell used to be a growth company. They aren't anymore. They spend about 18% of revenues on R&D, about 35% on sales/marketing, but revenues aren't growing. Start by Q1-96 and adjust for discontued businesses, and tell me where you see the growth becuase I don't see it. Yes, they are in a growing market but they are not growing. I still say that if they pay dividends the stock price would be higher, while we wait for the growth to materialize. As an example, Adobe pays dividends. Regards Salah
