Novell (NOVL:Nasdaq) seems to have the right stuff, but doesn't get much credit. What's wrong? Mecklermedia senior stock analyst Steve Harmon suggests the company could use some expertise in marketing, along with such basics as sales and profits, too. Leadership is, however, not an area where the company is lacking-and maybe that's reason enough to consider the shares. Chairman Eric Schmidt, technology chief at Sun Microsystems (SUNW:Nasdaq), joined Novell about a year ago and has been making changes, pushing the company to open networking software to work more compatibly with the Internet. Schmidt is orienting the company to offer businesses one-stop, one-click, easy-to-manage intranets. But it hasn't clicked with investors. "Novell just doesn't seem to get the kind of respect on Wall Street that rivals with one-tenth the products and one-one-hundredth of the experience receive," he laments.
