Vintela's Winding Road to Windows | |

Now pay attention, because this is going to get complicated. Ray Noorda, former head of Novell and at one time owner of WordPerfect, helped to fund the creation of Caldera, a company broken into two distinct entities. Caldera Inc. was a kind of holding company and owned the intellectual property rights to DR-DOS from Digital Research. Caldera used those rights to successfully sue Microsoft for anti-trust violations, winning a settlement worth at least $100 million. Not bad for a $400,000 initial investment. | ||

Prediction: Quest Software will buy Vintela. It only makes sense when you look at Quest's current product line, its expanding portfolio and acquisition history. It's only a natural expansion. The AD-*NIX mgmt space is growing very quickly with Vintela basking in the Fortune 500 companies that run its product (w/ a REAL big one about to sign on). There is only real competitor with Vintela...Centrify, an upstart from former CEO and founder of NetIQ.
Microsoft is a minority stakeholder in Vintela (<$10 million). Quest is a Microsoft Global ISV partner. My magic 8-ball says it will happen and I believe it. |
