| What also worries me, is openSUSEs close link to Novell. The integration of

...Turns out that SCO resellers are currently moving to GNU/Linux /en masse/.
Good news. Lots more momentum.

| The sad part of all of this is that Microsoft learned no lesson from
| their misadventures with The SCO Group. It is not a logical or
| healthy business practice to threaten to sue your own customers,
| and as Microsoft well knows, most Linux customers are also
| Microsoft customers.

| And why does Microsoft do this? Don't most holders of IP who think
| someone's software is infringing go after the vendor producing the
| allegedly infringing code? I will leave you to ponder the possibilities.

A five year deal with Microsoft to dump Novell/SUSE
,----[ Quote ]
| Wake up little SUSE, Wake up. No, that's not good enough. Wake up
| SUSE customers, wake up. Novell is jeopardizing the future of Linux
| for its own short-term rewards. If you want to see Linux flourish,
| let alone survive after Novell's five year deal with Microsoft
| expires, I suggest we make an alternative five year deal with
| Microsoft.
