> Hmmm.... wouldn't that be just the freakin' greatest if Google bought Novell?  ROFLMAO just thinking about that...

Would that need board approval or just be an expense item under petty cash?

Part of me likes seeing as many players in the market as possible, when 
ANY one player holds too many cards (patents, market share, etc..)
bad things happen.
