Hello Tom,

From the opinion of one Novell employee, I would rather see us with Lucent! I really think that the match of technologies is closer and that Novell's expertise fits better into an infrastructure player like Lucent.

For those of you that have not followed the recent developments at Lucent, they are slowly infiltrating the world with Inferno ... their own Virtual Machine that runs Limbo applications (a language developed by the creators of C, C++, and UNIX) *AND* it also runs Java applications. They are now showing Inferno running on many different platforms (both embedded systems and on common operating systems like UNIX and Windows), and also in set-top boxes. Instead of asking permission to become a standard, they are just embedding Inferno in everything they sell ... and they sell alot!

On another note ... anyone else following PairGain? (Nasdaq:pair)
