80% on Novell
OK, so sometimes I'm wrong. Miguel de Icaza called out an error I made in criticizing Novell for its open-source strategy.

And perhaps better than its open-source competitors (though he was too diplomatic to take shots).
Keep in mind when you read this blog that I never intentionally misrepresent anyone or any company. That said, I sometimes make mistakes. As my daughter said after a soccer game the other day, trying to convey to me just how hard she'd worked in the game (despite her team losing):
But Dad, I played so hard! I gave 80%!!
