Hmmmmmmmm

Peter gets outsourced and becomes an IBM employee. Then shortly after joining and slithering around at IBM he joins Novell. Now the rumours are rampant on IBM buying Novell. Maybe Peter was a sleuthing Deal Maker and brought these two companies together.

Hey - I gotta start a rumour somehow ;)

In reality, people on this this board (myself included) have said countless times over that Novell would be an extremely good fit for IBM. Now with Novell strong push into the open systems arena and with Novell seeming to hold some of the legacy Unix code keys that would help IBM put another nail in SCO's dumb-a?? money grab, maybe the IBM executive have finally seen the light.

Unfortunately, I will make a bold prediction that this is just another "IBM Buys Novell" rumour that once again will be nothing but Dust in the Wind.

As for Peter, we all knew that once Novell became smart enough to hire Peter, the lucky charm on Peter's head would shine down on Novell and all us shareholders and bless us all :)

Cheers!

Perry
