Period. NetWare is history. BorderManager..who cares ? What else >do they have ? NOTHING !!!! >For a change, the company should heed to shareholder and industry >demands....sell the damn company. Oh, with that glowing analysis of the company, VK, potential buyers will be lining up <big grin> Don't forget that most of their customer base has competing products (NT) in their enterprise.
