OK Steve,
I'm trying to redeem myself by giving you a link to a NOVL article not yet on the web, but in my hands ;) as I type.
Link to Sunday's Washington Post front page Business Section on Novell and Schmidt as the turnaround man. I get this section on Saturday afternoon, and the web link isn't in yet, so go
to this site on Sunday, April 19 for the full story. Nothing overly new in the article, just goes over Schmidt's daily schedule,
his drive, energy, and ability to wear many hats each day in his efforts to get NOVL back into action as a surviving company
providing networking software for customers needs in the inter/intranet and networked computers. However, as I've said many times before, Schmidt is the driving catalyst to Novell's future, not whether the current BOD is replaced all at once, or piece by piece. (I believe the "all at once" sweep would be extremely disruptive to Novell and the shareholders, but hey, just my opinion). Anyway, Schmidt listens, and then goes into action. I like his style very, very much.

The article is titled "The Trials of a High-Tech Turnaround Man - Eric Schmidt's Energetic Effort to Revive Software Firm
Novell Begins to Pay Off"
