  Microsoft's Coupon Money Boosts Novell's Linux Numbers
Time: 00:02 EST/05:02 GMT | News Source: CRN | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

It was a five year deal, but 18 months in to the hell-frozen-over cooperation agreement between Microsoft and Novell, Novell executives indicate things are still moving along swimmingly.

Part of the deal called for Microsoft to pony up $240 million to Novell so, in exchange, it could hand out coupons to customers for Novell's server Linux. From the looks of it, Microsoft hasn't exactly been wasting time.

"To date, we have invoiced $157 million, or 65 percent of the original five-year, $240 million agreement," Novell CEO Ron Hovsepian told financial analysts last week when discussing his company's most recent financial performance.
