So you still think $4.50 or so?... YES (12 mos from now) It is a real shame that a company that was the ONLY defacto standard for connecting computers together self-destructed. NOVLs customer base is deploying NT. Their resellers are selling NT. Hot new products such as a web server REQUIRE enduser to purchase Netware, while all competetors run out of the box on any operating system/hardware platform that enduser already has. STUPID! Computer manufacturers are standardizing on competitive directory services, and they are bringing in MSFT to make sure it is kosher. Netware itself is too one-dimensional. It is still basically a NOS. NT runs application code, and THAT is why application developers are porting to it. Brilliant. Endusers will have NT on the floor anyway. Why do they need NOVL? Yes, yes, yes, NOVL is a superior network operating system... and beta max was a superior video technology. Looks like NOVL is still on track to become the next Banyon.
