LinuxOne Plans Merger, But Shows Few Signs Of Life

Posted by timothy on from the who'da-guessed-it? dept.

An unnamed correspondent points to this NewsForge article by the esteemed Grant Gross about the ongoing saga of LinuxOne, the long-beleaguered and much-abused phantom Linux vendor. Anyone else have light to shed on this story? You may also be interested in reading earlier stories about LinuxOne.

  1. LinuxOne needs to improve their image... by Greyfox · · Score: 5
    They should get into porn and make money fast spamming. That'd radically improve their credibility and image in the community. At least porn spammers do something...

    It kind of blows my mind that you can for all intents and purposes publically plan fraud on a massive scale and keep the ball rolling with a shell company with no products or revenues for as long as they have without winding up in jail. It's like those pyramid schemes spams you get which always claim to be legal. I assume they consider legal "Not getting caught." So why hasn't this guy been caught?

    I'm trying to teach myself to set people on fire with my mind... Is it hot in here?

    Linuxone has hopefully trained their phone staff since then...

    (there used to be an MP3 of the phone call somewhere...)
