Ron is my kinda guy, as this quote from him proves he knows just how

"As for allegations that Novell has intentionally or naively entered a

competing with Microsoft for 20 years. We didn't just get stupid
overnight."
So this "WE" he refers to has little to do with Novell. I wager, given the
changes at Novell over time, there are very few people who have been there
20 years who are still in upper management.
But he was 17 years with IBM, which didn't have a pleasant experience
with Microsoft over OS/2.
I liked what Ron said.
