quick/free translation:

"Novell just signed a contract over more than 32,000,000 EUR with the British 
National Health Care
services (NHS). Novell will equip their 600,000 workstations used by network 
administrators
throughout of care centers (clinics, public hospitals, ...) with a Linux 
operating system.

In the next 3 years, they will be migrated to the Novell Linux Desktop system.

A spokesperson from Novell France: "those workstations were previously equipped 
with Microsoft
Windows". "This migration contract towards opensource software will save the 
NHS an approximate 75
million pounds during that period."

At the same time, NHS' servers will be migrated from Netware to Novell Open 
Enterprise Server.

It's one of the biggest contracts for Novell since the beginning of their Linux 
strategy.
