Irony of it all (Score 1)

You know the fact that Microsoft and Novell had their own beef over the NDS and AD structures, seems to be ironic now that they are going after the open source community the way they went after each other. The whole purpose of other apps doing the same thing is how we improve everything that has ever been created from cars to toasters and computers. After all was this not Bill Gates very argument when Apple got mad over Bill creating Windows based on the MAC O/S? Microsoft has gotten too big for their britches and should be broken up into smaller compaines like AT&T had done to them; Novell would do well to think before they open their mouth again. Hiding in the shadows of Microsoft will only make them a more viable target for aquisition by Microsoft. Of course now if Microsoft were to win this one, Google would do well to look out as Microsoft will be then attacking Google with full forse over their new desktop apps that they give away as replicas of MS Office(which was a replication of Lotus and others).
