Novell Shares Surge After Report of Agreement With Microsoft
By Rochelle Garner
Nov. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Shares Novell Inc. surged the most in three years after the Wall Street Journal reported that the company, a distributor of the Linux operating system, is entering into an agreement with Microsoft Corp.
Microsoft plans to provide sales support for Novell's Suse Linux operating system, the Journal reported on its Web site, citing unidentified people familiar with the companies.
I'm very glad to see that common sense has prevailed - I fear they would have had a large mountain of unsaleabale retail boxes otherwise :eek: And it shows that MS does listen, despite what many people say :) :)
There you go, however big the company is, they will always listen if there's enough noise from their customers. People power wins every time and I'm not even going to say told you so, opps already did :D :D :D
You must have someone on the inside :DQuote:

So you can't create a virtual image using Home Basic ($199) or Home Premium ($239). However, the EULA does allow you to use Vista Business ($299) or Vista Ultimate ($399). Hmmm... I wonder why? It couldn't possibly be because those editions cost more, could it? Wanna bet? The fact that there aren't any technical restrictions in place to prevent users from loading Home editions into VMWare, only legal and support barriers, sure lends credence to that supposition.
