"During the first fiscal quarter 2005, Novell recognized revenue of $15
million associated with its SUSE LINUX business, including $7 million of
recognized revenue from subscriptions to SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server."
To keep things in perspective, the same financial report includes $275
million of other revenue not from the SUSE business and a gain of $448
million from a legal settlement with Microsoft. It may be a long time
before the Linux business is carries the majority of revenue at Novell.

The 15 million is a sizable portion of the year to year quarterly revenue growth, which was 290 million compared to 267 million. It is also 25 percent growth over third quarter which was 12 million. The information given isn't enough to make any judgements of future impact. However, 25 percent growth over a three month period is not bad.Novell's first-quarter results
