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.
All signs indicate that Microsoft wants to "exit" the XBox business (not brand), but it does not want to publicly admit this as it would alarm staff and shareholders
Considering the huge proportion of Web requests that come from LLM bots (more so this past year or two), statCounter may struggle to justify the operating costs
The corporate media is projecting or signalling its own dishonesty when it tells us that Microsoft is a very "valuable" company while the data shows Microsoft is also a "market leader" in layoffs
