There is no gimmick possible to hide a product transition. If
customers hold back for Netware 5, but the orders are in for the 4'th quarter, then things will be fine (unless you are day trading).

I listened to call (so long!!!!) and noticed that most analysts don't
sound very enthusiatic about NOVL. I was surprised that NOVL could
not supply more precise numbers on exactly what they are selling, as
reflected in the 'We don't know' answers to some of the questions.

I guess that if Justice Department stays on track with MSFT (the 200+ days requested by MSFT just happen to allow NT5 release to happen
first), Netware 5 gets released, CEO/CIO perception problem gets fixed
for major account sales, and NDS really does spawn all kinds of wondeful tools, then NOVL will emerge as a great stock. Sure is a lot
to do!!!!

Good luck to fellow longs.
