Actually this is good for NOVL

(By the way James, we tend to summarize URL's here not just post them)

If Y2K is causing 3.X customers, the small business server customers the URL refers to, to upgrade in January then a number of them will have upgraded to Netware 5.0 in January as well. That's good news.

Part of Novell's problem in sales was getting its installed 3.X base to move to newer versions of Netware --- why should they when their 3.X systems run forever. With Y2K they can either buy a compliant 3.X upgrade or go to the latest stable NOS --- Netware 5.0.

As to NT, well my WIn98 system crashed three times today. My NT system had so many blue screens it currently is in pieces being "rebuilt". Good luck to all those people using NT workstations to run their apps.
