I actually had a dream about the BOD last night I dreamt that somebody got up at the annual meeting and thanked the hard working Novell employees for their work on Netware 5.0 and then asked why they still had these geezer monkeys sitting at the front of the room at the BOD table. Image of a geezer turning to his BOD buddy. Image of black suit. One BOD geezers then twitched his wrinkled jaw and sneered at the audience and then all the BOD members turned into Federal judges sitting at the bench. Schmidt was the attorney for the defendant. The employees then went on trial for their actions. =================================== Being a shareholder with such a BOD as Novell has is also a nightmare.

I agree with Joe...the old BOD is only looking after its own self interest. Recall 1996 when one very upset shareholder was creating noise just before the annual shareholders meeting in Utah. Novell quietly dispensed of him. Probably sent him to a nice resort on that expensive corporate jet at other shareholders expense. Point is that Novell BOD doesn't want any disturbance...they indeed are an ugly bunch of crooks nested in the beauty of Utah. Get rid of them and we may see Novell rejuvenate into something mighty.
