> Right now I think if Novell can deliver digitalme with email, calandering, internet fax and addressbook - it would be a HUGE step in the right direction.

Make that Triple HUGE...Meanwhile, it took them months to get a website up, it is slower than a turtle (and I got a cable modem!), the website has not changed at all since introduction, I downloaded that utility to install in my netscape browser and nothing happened, and NOBODY knows about the website...holding true to the uniquely Novell marketing theme of a Quiet Revolution<g>

We'll be lucky to see myreal box email integrated in digitalme by Easter if we keep up this pace...and so what, nobody knows about it!

I am nearing my 3 year anniversary of holding this stock and I will make a decision to sell or hold soon. I am tired of waiting for Novell's atrocious marketing to shape up (considering the superiority of their products).

I want a TOP marketing guy to be hired by Eric within a month to come in and create some loud mayhem...no more quiet revolutions please, real revolutions are loud and bloody.

Hi PJ,

"Right now I think if Novell can deliver digitalme with email, calandering, internet fax and addressbook - it would
be a HUGE step in the right direction."

"Anything beyond that would be amazingly interesting. Imagine a digitalme addressbook I could access through my email client, PDA, cell phone or home phone?!?"

Yes, I think the phone linkage is the crucial step forward here.

"ps - yeah, I'm feeling good seeing these numbers. I doubled up on Novell at 17 - I only hope the morning holds these numbers so I can sell some off :) "

We are at the end of the quarter. If NOVL needs to buy back a *few more shares* today is the last day..n'est pas?? (Are there any restrictions??)

There are obviously still a lot of comfortable shorts out there that maybe maybe will loose their cool soon and help us on the rebound..
