After this announcement . . .

They might rework things to setup interactivity. I still think this has more to do with Oracle's announcement, however. Microsoft and Novell get to protect their respective "turf's" against Oracle, and maybe narrow the Linux distro field a bit. After all, if SUSE gets to legally access and run MS's stuff, then they have a HUGE advantage in expanding the number of Linux Users using THEIR version of Linux.

If they get to legally integrate NTFS into SUSE, then I would be hard pressed not to switch to it, since I've been considering such a move for a while, but having to move close to 200 gig worth of data isn't my idea of fun. Having SUSE capable of installing on an NTFS drive would make it A LOT easier to justify switching . . .
