Scott, "NDS FOR NT" still requires a NetWare server for NT only sites this is an issue as you have to manage another operating system. "NDS ON NT" will not require a Netware server for operation, which means it is an easier sell to NT sites.

On Brainshare, I visited the Novell Labs and attended a Netpartner Council meeting. Impresed with the progress Novell has made across the board, Bottom Line......Novell is BACK :) Everyone I talked to was enthusiastic about Novell's technology, all advocates, all potential sales people.

Only negatives I picked up:

1) "Novell now just has to market it's products"
2) "Branshare sessions could have had more technical meat"

My negative: Clustering technology seamed to go backwards (on PAR with MSFT now!) from last years Wolf Mountain demonstrations, but at least it is a released product I can sell!
