Latest SCO News

SCO has discovered an amendment to their contract with Novell that may clarify that they did purchase the copyright to System V after all. Heise has an interview in German with a former employee. Cringely says SCO probably was responsible for any duplicated code itself, with a theory that is quite plausible. One non-programmer corporate analyst has looked at SCO's alleged evidence. And SCO has another press conference today.

    For God's sake - how can you patent 1s and 0s? The only reason people would do that is to become a fat-cat, like Bill Gates.

    What if you developed the software from 1/0's all the way up through every layer of abstraction to its current state? Then could you eat on my fat choad?

    Exactly! Patenting atoms is exactly why we have the problems with African children dying of AIDS - because the fat-cat drug companies have patented the cures and won't sell them cheaply.

    If they couldn't patent the atoms then the drug cures would be free for all, third world children could afford them, and even taxes would go down because health care and prescriptions wouldn't cost so much.
