Strifas: Do you see any significant announcement
in the forthcoming brainshare?
nobody is expecting much from NOVL these days.. maybe they will
surprise us in a positive way for a change??

>>>IMO The "failure" of turning around Novell appears as a broad statement

If we consider the expectation we and he had when he joined Novell and the forecasts he made, to date he has failed to turn around Novell as measured by revenue growth and profitability. I am confident the board expected better results in this time frame or they would not have been buying stock in the teens. I, as you, hope and believe that the current product portfolio has great potential to "turn around Novell" measured by profitability and revenue growth.
