Bonum Certa Men Certa

A Load of Press Releases from Novell, Despatched Throughout BrainShare

For those who wish to keep track of products and services announcements:

Good-bye NetWare, Hello OES 2

Novell announced the next generation of its OES (Open Enterprise Server) operating system, at its annual BrainShare tradeshow March 19. OES 2 adds 64-bit Xen-based virtualization, dynamic storage support, and Windows domain support, and marks the final transition from Novell NetWare to SLES (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server).


Here is another bunch (self promotional):



Finally, some financial analysis of Novell does not seem entirely encouraging.

Birinyi Associates checks out Novell on the Ticker Sense blog and finds that the software firm is the only stock in the S&P 500 that is up at least five days in a row. Novell has had five-day winning streaks 11 times in the past five years, but on the sixth day it’s been ugly — an average drop of 2.06%, according to Birinyi. How’s it doing this time? On a big day for many stocks, Novell’s barely staying true to form — down one cent to $7.
