HP Offers Linux Purchasers Indemnification

Posted by timothy on from the at-least-on-paper dept.

PnViking writes points out this story in the Detroit News, writing "HP is now covering any claims from SCO if you bought Linux and have a support contract from them: '"We will provide full indemnity across the entire suite for any SCO-related action," said Martin Fink, HP's vice president of Linux. "If (customers) were to get sued by SCO, we would take over their defense and assume liability on their behalf."'" The catch is, you have to be running it on HP equipment ;)

    A /. article about SCO first thing in the morning? What a welcome change!
