Microsoft investment shows all is not well at Novell
,----[ Quote ]
| The extension of the deal indicates one thing - all the money which has been
| pumped into Novell so far is not yielding the returns which either company
| hoped for and it is now time to further subsidise SUSE Linux.
|
| Yes, subsidise SUSE Linux. That is the main game from Microsoft's
| perspective - the subsidising of a GNU/Linux distribution which Microsoft is
| slowly infiltrating and trying to control. All this talk about
| interoperability is so much window (pun intended) dressing.
|
| [...]
|
| As Novell is finding out, and will continue to discover, such deals are
| counter-productive to the bottom line.
