Novell Not Dumping Netware

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the still-going-strong dept.

jerel writes "eWeek describes how Novell will still develop and support NetWare. The eWeek article quotes Bruce Lowry, a top spokesman for Novell as saying, 'The bottom line is no. The whole thing with Linux is an additive thing. We're not dumping NetWare, we're adding Linux.' NetWare 7.0 will allow users to either upgrade to the latest version of the NetWare kernel or move to Linux." I guess this answers any lingering doubts going around.

    God only knows what would happen if Novell lost all 15 of their customers at once.

    Five remaining users celebrate by exclaiming "ah-ha!" and opening that very special bottle of beer that has been in the back of the fridge for God knows how long.
