Wait a minute.. First of Novell's Netware does rule. I loved Netware 3.5, fast navigation, trustee directory structure, stability..! Netware severed a specific purpose and did it very well. As a file/print server Netware rox!
Second don't insinuate that Novell used to be great, cause it still is. Just because your average Fortune 500 company is standardizing on Microsoft Windows 2000 does NOT make it the correct solution for everything. Think outside the box, man. Yeah, I use Windows, sometimes. It is part of the game.! I don't discriminate OSs based on anything, especially age! If you think Linux is post mortem, then think again. I am off to compile the newest kernel on my Slackware box.

Sorry MS, but in the server field you can't beat linux.
