That means you only need to buy one SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop licence for your multi-user system.
- Leverage's existing Novell investments: Each user on the Desktop Multiplier system can take advantage of your existing investments in Novell GroupWise, Novell Messenger, iFolder, and other Novell products.
