This isn't surprising to those who understand the deal:

Deals with Microsoft have this effect. Just look at that little friend called SCO...
Novell move could kill SCO's Linux lawsuits

victim kills victim. Microsoft has got the two companies fighting each other to death. SCO with the Linux lawsuits and Novell wasting its money on lawyers. - Wootery, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Every time someone posts "Why is this on the front-page? It only has [x] diggs!", they get dugg down.
No-one cares.
There is more to the algorithm than total number of diggs - this much we know. - ToastBusters, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7What? Novell stock going down? Gee, maybe taking it up the ass from M$ wasn't such a good idea...
- loboforestal, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Going to bed with Microsoft is the kiss of death.
Only Apple and Intuit seem to have survived torrid affairs with Redmond. - XVampireX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5This is the result of microsoft partnership.
- CurtHowland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I believe that there is something to do with the rapidity of the diggs, as well as the number of negative votes (bury).
I've noticed that bury does not change the number of diggs, nor are the number of buries available. Personally, I would find it interesting to know not only how popular something is, but also how un-popular. - johnstar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Title should be Ms is successfully running novel into the ground.
- BryanUT, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Getting laid off from Novell last year at this time was the BEST thing that ever happened to me. I know I've said this before and I'll keep saying it every chance I get.
Rumor has it that many engineers in Provo don't like this deal either. Like that would be surprising. Engineers don't like anything management does. - GlargTheKelfn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3this is just the start. they have effectively committed sco-icide. the killing of your customer base by legal idiocy.
next quarter will be worse. if you have novell stock, dump dump dump! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@jeanmaxime: "Today was a hard day for the Nasdaq (except GOOG) !"
What is with the past tense? The market is still open, today isn't over yet :o) - RunnerOne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Would IBM or someone just please buy Novell and put a bullet in this already?!
- jeanmaxime, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i'm french, and it' was closed for me...
- msgyrd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I agree the Novell/MS deal was corporate suicide, but this is mostly unrelated. The partnership was too recent to affect an entire quarter worth of earnings.
This just shows us why they made the MS deal in the first place: the company was headed down the ***** already, and they're just flailing about to keep their heads above water. - CalZStudios, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oracle also took a heavy hit today, much to the pain of my portfolio.
- WaldoX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Agreeing to the MS deal was a sign of desperation on Novell's part.
- jeanmaxime, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is not the consequence of their alliance. investissors have just been disapointed with novells results over the 3rd quarter.
Today was a hard day for the Nasdaq (except GOOG) ! - cantormath, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Did they take any money from M$, Im not too sure about that...
- vargonen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0with all the money they took from MS??? Damn...
- SanTe, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Not only that, but we civilized folk who use RSS feeds never see the front page, much less care what's on it.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2high five!
- Bfica, on 10/12/2007, -11/+2Looks like there's big money to be made in Linux NOT
- tygern, on 10/12/2007, -16/+1Why is this on the front page with just 31 diggs?
