Novell Netware 7 will have two versions. One, an upgrade to the existing 6 core, and will work in a similar fasion. A second version will use Linux at the core.

Netware 6 uses Apache and some form of X-Windows. Novell is definitly looking at Linux more and more these days, and I personally see it as a good thing, instead of seeing some of the innovations in Netware simply fade away
