Novell and IBM are bringing the "Expanding Choice" seminar road show to Canada.

In three cities across the country, customers will be shown how Novell Open Enterprise Server integrates the choice and flexibility of open source software with the power and reliability of proven networking software, the company announced.

The 23-city tour runs in Canada and the United States, and allows customers to see first-hand how this software combination will transform their business and enable them to move to Linux at their pace, with the support they expect.

The tour will make stops in Toronto (November 4), Calgary (November 10) and Montreal (November 11). For more seminar information and to register, visit http://www.novell.com/expand.
