What do you think of the new Novell support changes? I encourage you to leave your comments on this!
I like it, brings Novell's support in line with other companies such as Cisco
I do not like it
Novell is blooming crazy, this is going to push customers, IT people, and consultants away from Novell even further!
I do not care either way
