<<I don't think you have heard the last of this from Dell either since their last statement did not do much to explain their internal IT strategy flaw.>>

Dell's most recent statement was actually good in two ways -

1) They stepped up themselves and said the MSFT release was incorrect

2) In that same statement, they said they were using NT for "office computing" while the 25,000 node Novell license was used in maufacturing operations. I'm sure MSFT loves being relegated to "office computing", e-mails and spreadsheets, in Dell's public statement.
