OSS_ilation writes "Analysts and users agree -- if the layoff rumors at Novell prove true sometime soon, SuSE Linux has nothing to fear. Over at SearchOpenSource.com the word is that the popular SuSE Linux operating system has both the community support and technical chops to weather any personnel-related storms that may be lingering on the horizon. However, the point is also made that should Novell go south, there are those who believe SuSE could prove to be an appealing acquisition target."

    This is slashdot where group think is convinced massively wealthy, divested and well run corporations are constantly on the brink of extinction.

    Yes, I would agree that a "divested" company is likely in trouble. However, I do not see how that applies to Novell. Please explain.
