Scott,
You said

<<"I can see what Novell has, and I refuse to give up on that. I refuse to give up on the people who are working to make this company happen.">>

and

<<"I meant what I said to vinod last week, no offense intended, but money is easy to make. It's more in what you are willing to compromise to make that money. I can make money ... but it's sometimes tough to get into a good game where a coach let's you on the field! I have some people at Novell that have faith in me and allow me to play!">>

You, and to an extent Adrian, by working for Novell and having the courage to stick to your guns and post here regularly, have opened yourself up to being used as a punching/kicking bag. I for one appreciate the fact that you keep posting, and that you do try to include some product/industry SPECIFIC information in your posts.

Your information has been a very helpful part of the equation as I try to evaluate this investment and company. Others here have a right to disagree with you (even those who are shorting the stock again and come over only to stir up shit, while bringing no meaningful information or significant contribution), but some go out of their way to make it a personal attack on you. You have exhibited more character that the aggregate of those type people, who are really reflecting how they feel about themselves in their treatment of you.

I am glad someone on the sales force such as yourself has a positive attitude. Keep it. I realize you are not senior management and can't change the company on your own, please continue to post.
