Headed by former Novell executive Ransom Love, Caldera's desktop operating system will list for $89. Better yet, Caldera's products should not infringe on Microsoft, if Novell's scrutiny of the projects is correct. "We had some of the best attorneys in the industry go through that," says a Caldera source. The as-yet unnamed Caldera desktop software -- which uses the "public domain" (journalists can't grok the GPL) Unix software known as Linux as its kernel --= will act as a standalone computer operating syustem, or as part of the full Novell Corsair environment.
