Depending what you define the "hole" to be. NetWare sales will continue to
plummet, quite naturally so. It's a matter of how good a rebound you can get
owing to SLED. The Linux sales are growing by about 30% per annum, if I
recall correctly. While it's not sufficient perhaps, it sure demonstrates
the growth and adoption of SUSE Linux.

Best wishes,

Roy
