Yes, that would appear to be the case.

Pretty sure its real... :p

Who gives a shit?

Maybe a whole bunch of us should give one...

May I suggest we shower him with gifts?

From the article:

Yes, we're reducing our Linux deployment, eliminating Linux entirely -- or at least we're thinking about it: 9 percent.

In other news, one company has seen a huge increase in orders requested for SCO headquarters.

Actually, no. This is more up his alley. ;-)

Obviously you have never been to this site. They had some troubles recently, and were selling the site before, but looks like they are still in business...

No flames, though. You can't mail flaming dogshit and it would be tough to convince the mailperson to set a package on fire on a doorstep. I suppose you could hire minions in various cities to do your bidding and they could deliver/ignite the dog shit.

like this? dogdoo.com

as discussed in this thread on DDOS'ing SCO

Mind you, the flaming part does not seem to be an option.

Uh... This has been around for ages but I never felt the inclination to test it. There used to be a handfull (no pun intended) of them. Try: www.dogdoo.com (mind the popups, etc). I'm sure there are others.

Don't know if it was the site you remember or not, but one such site is www.dogdoo.com.

...which package it was? I would have sprung for the PooPoo Grande.

what's wrong with good old dog shit? [http://www.dogdoo.com]

"Sorry if you've received this other spammer's product in error. Reply to be removed from our Spam-Swap(TM) List."

".. and you will be removed from our list in just five to six weeks!"

DogDoo.com has ALWAYS been profitable, ever since our inception in June of 1999! When other huge web sites like Amazon.com still remain in the red we have turned profits each and every month.

It's not hard to see that a company that ships dog crap would be profitable. There's a few reasons for this:

1. This is a service that has demand. There are several reasons for this as well.
2. There is very low overhead. The cost of dog food and dog care for a few animals is all.
3. Shipping and everything else is paid for by the customer sending the package. The end result is that dogpoo.com is probably making close to 100% profit.

Even if only a few people order, they are already making money. A single order from any of the "sizes" of dog crap will pay for the food for the dog for a month or more. It's $25 plus shipping for 2 lbs of feces. That's more than steak.

Pretty much the only other raw materials, besides poop is the shrink wrap and boxes for sending the stuff in. Dogdoo.com is actually providing a service that some people want. Granted it is probably a niche market, but some people are buying it. I cannot see anyone wanting control of their monitor from anywhere in the world.

The guy starts in on this philosophical pitch about the portability of currencies, and how the internet is going to pose serious challenges to consumers wishing to make transactions on a global stage, and how gold, of all things, is the world's best bet to unify the online shopping experience. As such, he entered into the E-Gold pitch, and I started hoping that the work on my Prelude would hurry itself up.

My initial verbal reaction to the E-Gold plan was "oh, yeah, that is an interesting idea", but in the back of my head, I was thinking "Yaaar MatEy, wE be KeeLhAuLin yEr GoLd" and I conjured up images of eyepatches and pirate ships. I wasn't even sure he was making any sense whatsoever, but then again, selling dog shit online would get you VC money back in '99...

I did after you provided the link. I'd like to know how they consider the output of their 110 pound dog Buster worthy of the term PooPoo Grande. It's obvious that they've never had to deal with a well-fed Mastiff. There's a breeder in CA that has a 270 lb dog that could probably supply them with more crap than they could ever need.

I did.
