      For those who are interested in the SuSE  Novell Acquisition, some =
news.




      The recent announcement of our intended acquisition of SUSE LINUX =
has generated tremendous enthusiasm within the industry. In A New Point =
of View, read how this move will allow Novell to offer customers =
complete Linux options from the Server to the Desktop. With the strong =
software and services SUSE offers and the powerful crossplatform =
solutions of Novell, this is sure to be a match made in heaven.


      In Millions Served, Novell serves up an order of solutions that =
allows McDonald's Brazil to enjoy business continuity. By adding desktop =
management and single sign-on capabilities to their, already-in-place, =
NetWare, Novell helped the largest restaurant chain in Brazil provide =
non-stop service to millions of customers.


      How does working from a lounge chair by the pool sound? Better =
yet, doing it without missing anything going on in the office or with =
your team. Too good to be true? Not anymore. Free to Move explains how =
Novell Virtual Office adds the features of other great Novell offerings =
to NetWare 6.5 such as eGuide, iPrint, iFolder, Virtual Teams and =
NetStorage. Now you can take your office anywhere, anytime. And users =
set up and manage many of their own processes. This means no added =
headache for the system administrator.


      Integrating legacy data on the Web as well as meeting the =
expectations of users can be challenging, to say the least. In early =
2004, Novell will release exteNd 5.0-the main goal of which is to reduce =
the complexities associated with Web services. Tools of the Trade walks =
you through many of the exciting new features and enhancements that have =
been added to this already award-winning suite.


      If you have been enticed by the freedom of choice and flexibility =
that Linux has to offer but concerned about the maturity of offerings, =
now is your chance to see for yourself that you can have it all! Novell =
Nterprise Linux Services 1.0 is now available. It's Time explains the =
services such as File, Identity, Management, Messaging, Print and =
Virtual Office services that are reducing the barriers of adopting Linux =
across the enterprise.


      Ximian Desktop 2.0 has combined the best of Linux desktop =
solutions: the Evolution client, GNOME 2.2 shell, Ximian Edition of =
OpenOffice.org, and a software update tool called Red Carpet among other =
accessories, and wrapped them in a pretty package to provide you with a =
solid and complete desktop alternative for end users. In Suite Desktop, =
we examine the benefits of making the switch and discuss why it may be =
the alternative you've been seeking.


      Fine Print offers two of the most sought-after tips on the Novell =
Cool Solutions Web site: How to run NetWare 6 under VMware Workstation =
for Windows and also how to enable folder redirection through a local =
group policy. From the rave reviews these tips have received, you're =
bound to put them to work.


      And we can't sign off without saying THANKS for the overwhelming, =
positive response and great feedback on our recent survey! Look for it =
again next year. But, if you have something to say don't wait 'til then. =
Give us feedback all year long by sending a message to =
. And register now for BrainShare 2004 =
(www.novell.com/brainshare). We'll see you on March 21 in Salt Lake =
City!


      Regards,


      -Alan Friedman, Senior Vice President-People / President, Novell =
