●● Dell on Joining the Microsoft/Novell Liaison, in Video

In the following video, Dell talks about the deal with Novell and Microsoft. It mentions the offering of IP, but that’s not new anyway.

Among some quotes (roughly correct):

“…no UNIX we’re [Dell] trying to protect…”

“…we’re not trying to protect proprietary UNIX…”

This seems like a marriage of convenience. Remind yourselves who Novell is working with in Microsoft’s Linux Labs. Here’s what their principal man had to say quite recently:

“The Free Software movement is dead. Linux doesn’t exist in 2007. Even Linus has got a job today.” Controversial statements from the head of Microsoft’s Linux Labs, Bill Hilf.

Are these the people whom Novell trusts? They are clearly trying to destory Linux, not facilitate its adoption. They have also hijacked Linux conferences in order to confuse the attendees. Novell, please wake up.
