Love Says Caldera's Doing Fine, Despite Losses

Their latest move is to close the Chelmsford and Erlangen offices, as well as lay off 73."

Now, he says, they're ready to go forward with their grand strategy, which unfortunately has nothing at all to do with desktop Linux as we know it."

Is Slashdot becoming The Onion?

First: Love Says Caldera's Doing Fine
then.. Caldera is barely scraping along. Those statements are mutually exclusive.

(in contrast to little brother Lineo, which may not survive)

In contrast to? If Caldera are 'barely scraping along' then surely they might not survive either.

The bad financial report out of Caldera yesterday is actually good news

That makes absolutely no sense.

This story sounds like a giant spoof. Noel Coward.. (of "Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun" fame?).. And 'Ransom Love'? Eh?

Is Slashdot trying to be The Onion of tech stories? If so, do your homework, this is only funny because of how stupid it is.
