<<On the topic, IMHO the window of opportunity is now. With Microsoft Directory Services (MAD) stalled until 2000, this is it.
All down to execution, and the marketing, I am at a Novell conference next week (my first in 2 years), be interesting to see the difference.>>
Yep, you put it in a nutshell, and I expect Schmidt to make the big "splash" on NW5 during the hot dog days of August here in the US.
I see that you one of your hobbies is Porsches. Hmmm, do you own a Boxster? If so, invite Paul down to Australia for a little R&R and a test ride (Paul, load up on NOVL shares before you go!). A friend of my brother's who designs cars for Ford, has a Boxster to play with at their design plant. He drove over to my brother's house to show him the car and let him take it for a few minute spin. Well, he drove it around for over 1 hour -- he said it was lots of fun. Hmmm, just $50ish K and away you go.....;)
