Well, Netware is an "old" system, just like UNIX, so it is very stable. This
can't be said of NT. It is unstable, expensive, and a real beast to manage.
Comparing Linux and Netware: Netware has the advantage that it has neat
menu's to do about everything. Same is possible with X windows and the
standard tools, but if you want to do something special, you'll have to edit
configuration file.

I think this depends on three things:
- Do you have personal that has UNIX knowledge ??? Netware knowlegde is more
common.
- How much money do you have ??? Netware cost a LOT more than Linux.
- For what do you use Linux/Netware. Buth of the have up's and downs.

They are most of the time right. NT is far to unstable, and it isn't
scalable.
