"Our partnership with Microsoft continues to expand."

--Ron Hovsepian, Novell CEO

Having already tripled the number of collaborations with Microsoft, Novell intends to triple them yet again, according to the following new interview with Ron Hovsepian.

It’s going very well insofar as we originally agreed to co-operate on three distinct projects and now we’re working on nine projects and there’s a good list of 19 other projects that we plan to co-operate on.

How long before there is complete overlap?

How long before it makes sense for Microsoft to just buy Novell, which already supports all of its proprietary technologies. Microsoft's recent moves towards Utah are interesting too (we gave two examples in the past week). ⬆
