Default Best Behavior! Dell might try to buy Novell. >:)
Everyone on your best behavior now!

Rumors are flying around that Dell has been looking at Novell's assets. Now it's possible that some mutually non-exclusive sniffing might be going on to see if that might be a good marriage in technologies.

So while the Saga of "Ells" plays itself out be good sports and play nice. I know that is a tall order but it's better than Oracle ripping everything to shreds. I'm not sure that Dell has the Kahonnas to handle Novell.

Who knows it might actually make some practical long-term good sense. Too bad it's not IBM.

With all that said: Cancel all the Novell House and Street parties.

Actually, that's Cindy Lauper singing that... but we can invite Madonna to sing for us "Like a Novell... touched for the very first time"

I admit... that "yes" I did learn in high school that Cindy Lauper sings about "girls" wanting to have fun. Some actually do have fun.

But Cindy is too much of a leftie to sing about "Corporations" wanting to have fun! That corporate spin off is all about Madonnna shaking it on stage with some mean techno. There is a movie in it some place. The "Ell" Saga; staring Madonna. I'm sure we could find a spot for Lauper.... extras... extras!!!!
