BOUGHT (even more)...........NOVL

Increased my position by 40% when my limit order filled at $7.01

NOVL today unveiled its next-generation enterprise Linux* desktop,
delivering technology and design improvements that establish the Linux
desktop as a benchmark for basic office productivity and usability

SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop is the first fully supported enterprise
desktop to deliver OpenOffice.org 2.0, the leading open source office
suite. OpenOffice includes a powerful spreadsheet program, business
presentations tool and word processor. The NovellŽ edition of
OpenOffice.org will support many Visual Basic macros, closing one of the
chief compatibility gaps between OpenOffice.org and Microsoft Office.
OpenOffice.org 2.0 can save and open documents created in Microsoft Office
formats including Excel pivot tables, and it is the only office suite
available today that fully supports the OpenDocument file format, the new
public standard for document files. Because OpenDocument is a public
standard maintained by the open source community, it eliminates vendor
lock-in by ensuring information saved in spreadsheets, documents and
presentations is freely accessible to any OpenDocument-supporting
application.

Interesting value added features.

Be aware that the price of MS Office compatability is quite high and
depends on reverse engineering MS Office products. MS can change
their formats at any time rending existing OO and NOVL work dead or
stone walled. Even OO has changed formats between 1 and 2.

Further, MS has tons of products and is not a one trick pony. Can not
say that for NOVL I don't think.

Your bucks.
