Hello! Thanks for the history, I was somewhat lost until now :) But I'm still a cheerleader as the stock and the company does well. Peter PS - a good friend of mine who has some contacts inside NOVL explained that NOVL was "working with Cisco on one-on-one deals for some time now, it just took cisco a while to realize they maybe should offer to the general public what they have been doing for individual customers on a by-request basis. (sigh) He said the important thing for Novell about this announcement is that if there is anyone left on earth who doubted "Novell is back" this should change that !" If I get anything else I'll pass it along :)

Big tactical mistake? Microsoft drops Java from IE for Mac, Unix By Stephen Shankland and Dan Goodin Staff Writers, CNET News.com November 20, 1998, 5:55 p.m. PT Macintosh and Unix users will have to look for Web browsing software somewhere besides Microsoft's Internet Explorer to run Java programs. As a result of a federal judge's ruling against Microsoft this week, the firm will strip a critical Java technology out of the Internet Explorer (IE) Web browser for Apple Computer's Macintosh operating system and the Unix system, a letter sent to IE licensees said today. Microsoft will remove its Java virtual machine, which allows a computer to understand and run Java programs. Web browsers such as Internet Explorer can call on the virtual machines to run Java "applets" downloaded over the Web. news.com
