To ALL good faith Novell investor: I send a note to serveral Novell personnel and hopefully I can give some help to my money.
The way I look it, Novell may not like people bad mouth about them or critize them publically but I can't see anyone will turn down suggestions, especially free ones.
I hope all good faith Novell investors who believes NOVELL is looking up to contribute your ideas to NOVELL, remember, we are not only helping NOVELL but we are also helping our investment.
I,ersonally, hate people to critize problem without a positive suggestion because that is easy for anyone to say, but suggest something and do something are positive way to help ...
Here is the note I sent to NOVELL's big and medium shots: ===========================================================
Hi,
I have been with NOVELL for over 2 years now as an investor, I don't know a lot of things but I do know NOVELL is a fine company and that is why I invest in NOVELL.
I have been observed the market attitude towards NOVELL, they are not playing a fair game but again, partially because NOVELL does not have a good defensive plan.
May I suggest you a thought, if you think it is not worth to try can you tell me why but if is is worth a shot, I am glad to lend a thought becuse we are in the same boat:
I read a lot of articles regarding NOVELL's image and Novell's products.
There are few positive articles from time to time but they are in defferent magazines or news, people may see one but not seeing others, can you COLLECT all possible good articles once a week and issue them as a list (such as a list of www address) and put out as your HOT PRESS from time to time? I believe most people who cares about NOVELL (good or bad intention) will go to NOVELL adress's HOT PRESS to check out from time to time but none will really check all managines or news.
In a simple way, I hope NOVELL can take the lead to gather all force that is friendly towards NOVELL's product and image and shoot out as a united force once every week.
Too many bad publicities against NOVELL too little action NOVELL reacts on them, so use other people's friendly opinions to go against other people's unfriendly opinions is a fair game plan because the friendly opinions are objective and they are not NOVELL's opinion.
I don't know how much would cost NOVELL to do this but one or two people to go on all new agents (to pay or not to pay) should be ample enough.
The small cost will yield large and positive results toward the market.
Remember, a united force is much stronger than a spreaded froce.
Regards.
