“Now that Attachmate owns Novell, what does the formerly obscure
company plan to do with its $2.2-billion operating system and
networking prize? I interviewed Attachmate via e-mail CEO Jeff Hawn
and this is what he told me.

“Before launching into the interview, I’ll note that most of
Novell’s senior executive staff won’t be hanging around. Ron
Hovsepian; President and CEO; Dana Russell, CFO; John Dragoon, CMO;
and Markus Rex, SVP and General Manager of open platforms and long
time SUSE leader have all left. So it is that Attachmate is
starting with a clean management slate.”
