As argued many times before, Novell sees Red Hat as its main rival, rather than stay focused on Microsoft, which is where a large userbase is up for grabs. Novell should have and could worked more closely with Red Hat, not scrutinise them. As a matter fact, a Novell deal with Red Hat did not seem like such a crazy idea back in November, based on what we discussed in the SUSE mailing lists. An enemy of one's enemy is a friend, but Novell chose to make a deal with the enemy, to hurt what could have been a good friend.

This particular video was one that was submitted by a college student in a Novell sponsored College student video competition. Novell did not give the students any content guidelines other than the direction that each video had to be Novell related. This video was very well produced and was humorous and did well in the competition. We did not base our judging criteria on what we felt was politically correct at the time. This was not a political statement just an attempt by a student to create something unique and clever and win a prize.
