Mr. Corporate feelgood Well Scott you get the prize. I don't think there is a Novell CEO that you couldn't suck up to or a Novell strategy that you couldn't find some merit in. Tell me Scott what is the revenue stream for the next two Quarters for Borderware products? Will it replace the revenue stream that you had and now have completely lost for your 3.x products? You know the bottom end of your product line where the hole is as big as the hole in the ozone layer over the North Pole. If you've fogotten where it is, its where you used to be a few years ago dominating the network operating systems used on Intel platforms. Just to remind you incase you forgot. Incidently you said your customers don't want you to compete anymore with NT. Well guess what Scott you don't compete anymore with NT. (Scott reminds me of those people that said we won the war in Vietnam). Thousands of Novell employees that are leaving this month. Not you though Scott. But then again it must have been their fault. Pat yourself on the back Scott. Why don't you go celebrate this great managerial triumph with Joe Marengi. In case you don't believe me Scott (and your pompous ass never has heard anything that was said here), here is what the CEO of Tandem said today. Incidentally he doesn't share your pitiful fig leaf attempt at good news with regard to NT scaling up to the enterprise. You see Tandem got 50 million dollars from MSFT to make NT scaleable and it works so well that CPQ just paid more than 3 billion for it. Gosh what a failure Enterprise Nt must be huh. Here is what he said today Scott--- "The low end and mid range UNIX systems will be flattened by Enterprise NT. We are ready to say to HP and Sun's customers that Enterprise NT is the way to go." You hear that Scott. Novell is considered the used to be in the Intel world. No one even bothers to mention Novell. Pope William is now after converting the UNIX mid-range. Its good to see you know your brown nosing place Scott pushing the old we don't compete with NT line. As I recall you were the guy running NT on your desk right? Well you don't have to worry Scott, none of your customers will be impolite enough to tell you they chucked all of their Novell systems for NT. They'll just say its good that you can give them a product that doesn't go head to head with MSFT anymore. And you Scott will be happy, because you are the perfect Novell survivor. The last car in the parking lot so to speak with a shit eating grin on your face.
