Sorry didn't follow the link. I work in a NetWare shop, my boss has been a 
true believer in NetWare for more than a decade. He told me yesterday that the 
version 7 will run natively on top of the Linux Kernel. That's pretty cool. No 
more having to load DOS on a machine just to boot into NetWare.

I'm also told they are going to officially support AMP (Apache, MySQL and 
PHP/Perl) so now you can have NAMP boxes in place of your LAMP boxes, if you'd 
like.

Personally, I'm sticking with LAMP. NetWare's always made a great file server, 
but Linux still has many advantages over it, IMO.
