Novell has the advantage that it doesn't really matter what networking hardware you have, they probably have software to support it that works faster and cleaner than the software provided by the manufacturers of that hardware. They provide lots of nice support software and the network implemented is almost like you weren't working off a remote server. If you need help with contacting them or evauating which hardware to aquire, feel free to contact me via usenet. I have no financial connection with Novell, I just -really- like their system..
