For those optimists about how much time NOVL has, a word from IBM

As reported in CRN

crn.com

"The new receptivity to NT is a switch for a company that until recently fearfully watched the operating systems growing popularity...because it had a vested interest in its own server OS."

"They are evolving their strategy from a proprietary operating system to NT," said Jim Garden.

"IBM's switch follows NT's growing popularity. NT server revenue is expected to grow to $6.5 billion next year...We at IBM recognize we should tailor our offerings to accommodate Microsoft...the computer giant is embarking on projects to bring NT fully into the enterprise."
