Novell/SUSE Prime for Aquisition?

Ho Kooshy Fly writes "Supposedly Novell/SUSE looks like a good buyout target now. The likes of the obvious, IBM and the less obvious Cisco might be interested in integrating in the new Novell/SUSE company into their portfolio." Lucent, AT&T, and HP are also mentioned as possible buyers, but it's important to remember that it's all still just speculation.

    Turns out the Iraquis have a little Kobe Bryant blood in them. They like the old corn hole, too.

    Five minutes after Lynch was captured, they're passing her around like a pack of smokes, fucking her in the ass, turning her into their own personal goatse man.

    Sweet

    It has already been noted that SuSE is prime for aquisition on that page.

      Many people believe Novell/SuSE will be bought. There is an informative article posted on this very possibility.

    You're assuming that all they would be after is the IP assets, when the truth of the matter is different. As these numbers show there is a signifigant amount of good-will towards SuSE floating around in the air just waiting to be sucked up by any company that aquires them. It could easily be a no-risk way for IBM to step up their allready considerable Linux commitment.
