What well recognised and respected analysts
"IDC analyst Al Gillen"

Novell has grown it's Linux markets share. Could also have
added the Linux market growth is over 100% year on year.

"Ideas International analyst Tony Iams"

claims Novell has problems with "marketing and execution"
without being specific. Yet the Linux market is growing over
100% p.a. and Novell is growing their share of that market.

"Ovum Summit analyst Dwight Davis"

states graphics aren't a swayer in the corporate desktop, but is
that all there is in SLED 10? What about beagle (search), update
and patching architecture, and the tools manage corporate
desktops in SLED 10, or the give away price of $US50 per seat?

Looks to me ZDNet was desperate to find any analysts with
something negative to say, with only the geniuses at "Ideas
International" and "Ovum Summit" the ones quoted.

What well recognised and respected companies (starts rolling
around on floor laughing). Maybe they should have asked my
newsagent for a quote? wink
