Barry, you are missing the point.

Novell IS losing market share. Indisputable fact. Find me a study that backs up your point of view.

"NT Server is too slow, memory-intensive ..." I'd like to see how Novell Netware on a pentium compares to a multiprocessor 400+Mhz Alpha. Oh, thats right, Novell doesn't run on Alpha!

"NT is alien." Everything new is alien, thats what sysadmins are for. Now lets talk alien between NW 3.12 and NW 4.x Why does Novell require recertification for 4.x from 3.x certified CNE's?

"NT doesn't offer anything new." For one thing, I can actually run application software on my NT box and even use a mouse!

"Netware customers won't change their NOS for the heck of it." Well they are changing for SOME reason, as their market share is shrinking at the same rate NT's is expanding.
