That would be Tuesday's IT Blogwatch: in which Dell joins the Microsoft/Novell partnership. Not to mention a strange and hurtful database connection error message...
Sumner Lemon's not bitter:
Dell Inc. is backing the Windows-Linux partnership set up by Microsoft Corp. and Novell Inc. As part of the deal, Dell will buy SUSE Linux Enterprise Server certificates from Microsoft for corporate customers that are not already using Linux ... Last November, Microsoft and Novell agreed to jointly develop and market products that allow Windows and Linux to work together more smoothly. As part of the deal, Microsoft also agreed to indemnify Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise users from patent claims. The first hardware vendor to join the alliance, Dell said in a statement that it hopes to tap customer demand for interoperability between Windows and Linux.
