Hi George, " The biggest opportunity in 1998 lies with Novell..."" Your point about press is right on. A recent article, "This Year'sHot Product Predictions'" in Internet Week techweb.com states, "Novell's biggest opportunity will be as a high-bandwidth, easy to manage alternative to Windows NT." Love that "easy to manage"! Maybe somebody out there isn't brain dead and will purchase a product that doesn't blue screen crash every time somebody wants to do business. Everywhere I go, broker, bank, retailer, etc., there it is behind the counter: the microsoft blue screen crash. Man, this is hilarious. Hello IT geniuses, why buy this crap? when you can NOW, right NOW, get bandwith, dependability, and life saving, time saving, network dependability with a directory? Also, "Novell Netware can handle gigabit speeds with aplomb...(when is the last time you saw this adjective used to describe Novell products?)... and, "Network managers needing actual throughput will need to look beyond Microsoft for the forseeable future." Right on. I especially like "going the extra mile in its battle against NT" Hey, is fuzzy the sleeping bear turning into a killer grizzly? Kick ass Eric, and do it NOW. I bought more at 7 3/4. If Eric ("we need hot products") produces, this baby could pop before any earnings hit. Remember gang, this is an internet play. Lawrence
