Mark, I think that you will find that the great majority of people who use and
install Novell networks are NOT on internet.  From my own experience, they
are the usual batch of computer salesmen/women who have their head stuck
firmly in the backside of MS-DOS.

Unfortunate, but true...these are the people who create the direction of the
computer world.  Not a wonder the great majority of PC's are still those 
monolithic hulks (all bus but no OS).
