Volera....

Hmmmm didnt some of us on this board suggest earlier this year that the Caching component should be spun off? Uhhmmm, May/June I believe?

I think its a good move. Paul, will this company IPO?

Good to see. I hate to say it but taking Novell's name off this product line will likely give the caching product that extra booast. I think the OEM's that use ICS will now become more public about the company that makes it. I heard that some OEMs would rather not associate this powerful product with the company that makes it for fear of losing some sales. Proof is in the pudding. How much bragging have you heard from Compaq, IBM, Dell, etc. on their implementation of ICS.

This is not a slam in any way, its just that Novell's name in the industry does not attract customers like moths to a flame - so why mention it if it can be hidden?

Good Move Novell!
