Dell I read that story and agree but also disagree. The biggest mistake Novell did to loose to Microsoft in 80's was to sale NetWare and give away eDirectory. Novell allowed Microsoft to basically give NT away while developing AD loosly around eDirectory while Novell struggled to sale NetWare. Linux is the same senario, why buy something that you an get for free. Buying Red Hat makes no since while giving SUSE away and aquiring a reoccuring revenew stream that Novell poses is a better aquisition for Dell. Dell doesn't need an OS to give away it needs an engineering platform like eDirectory with products it can control much like IBM. To Aquire Novell is like asking to buy the Louvre, it's easy to put a price on the building but try putting a price on the art inside. Love or hate Novell you can't argue with it's ability to engineer and If Dell can pull off a Novell aquistion it will have plenty of art to hang on it's walls.
