Greetings David,
  Did You know that Ray Nordia, the founder of Novell, started a new
company Caldera, in Utah a bit over a year ago? They have developed the
first Office Suite of business applications for Linux, which includes
WordPerfect6. They also have their own version of Linux, Network Desktop,
with built-in WWW server, Internet E-mail, Netscape Navigator and NetWare
connectivity. Now they have purchased the DR-DOS operating system from
the Digital Research division of Novell. They are going to release a New
version and are writing Internet access extensions for it.
  Ray is a very shrewd businessman and it appears that he saw Gary's
brilliance after all and the potential hidden inside DR-DOS. Now if
they can acquire FoxPro, then the Skys the limit!
                                                He he, ha ha, ho ho,
                                                den
P. S. (Even though they stopped selling it, DR/Novell has continued to
       support it with 4 Maintenance updates to each DR-DOS 6.x & 7.)
