Hello, I'm sorry if I am used to typing fast 12 hours a day 360 days a year.... I don't have time to review my postings, I am loosing money just discussing all of this stupidity... Well again I see that no-one wants to come forward and talk about the real issues, they would rather attack me for my spelling, grammar, etc... Not one of you wants to talk about the future of NOVELL... Why not attack me for being a trial member... Don't worry I'm not going to join... It's pretty funny that again you guys want to start talking to me like I support MSFT... I don't... All I am saying is that NOVELL might have the best technology for the times just like OS2 and UNIX.... It does not matter.... NOVELL's stock price reflects what the public thinks of their future... This will be my last posting... So you win with your name calling... etc.. I'm not going to even discuss the issues involved with your bill rate... hiring you etc.... I won't pay you to wash my car... Ya know since you have explained this all so well to me, I am thinking about logging onto Etrade right now and buying a few hundred shares of NOVL.... :^) You have convinced not one person about the longevity of NOVL... All you have done is shown your ass in the public... Congradulations... I am done wasting my time with you idiots... Only time will tell if my prediction comes true and NOVL dies... When you start developing applications for CEO's of billion dollar companies to make 5-10 year plans on, come and talk to me... I don't think you could get an appointment... Sorry....

WARNING A summary of Peter's angry response. You mean the posters on this board aren't a bunch of dumb shits investing in NOVL for no reason? You mean the stock didn't go from 7 to 13 for no reason? You mean MSFT has mastered the art of spin doctoring? You mean MSFT initially refused to support customers who installed NDS for NT for no reason? You mean MSFT reversed it's position on NDS for NT days later for no reason (maybe a call from Schmidt, more antitrust ... nah!!!)? Well, I'll be damned! ;-) This 3 post trial membership restriction has got be killing MZIP. I'm reminded of the Gulf War and the Iraqi anti-aircraft assault on American fighter planes. Menacing but either there are too many targets or just a spray at no target in particular. Except in this case he only has 3 bullets. We've given him many good reasons for NOVL future success and why everyone NEEDS NOVL, but he keeps asking us the address the real issue. If "why people need NOVL" isn't why he came here, then we've been answering the wrong question. He obviously didn't come here for that. Despite his threatening to the contrary, I suspect we haven't heard the last from him, but I hope so. Procreant
