There was a little blurb on internet.com a couple of days ago mentioning that Novell would be optimizing the SUSE Linux OS for SAP applications.
Linux vendor Novell is releasing an optimized version of its SUSE Linux

Now I don’t expect Novell’s business to stand still right now, but this is interesting given that there were reports a couple of weeks back that that Novell was about to break itself into 2 parts and sell itself off. From the NY Post believe it or not:
