Will they be teaming up with PBS?

If you bring your copy of Linux will they tell you what they think it's worth?

SCO Roadshow guy: Hmmmm.... Red Hat... 6.3... That was a good year... yes... I'd say this is worth about -$699.95 to you.

Try googling for "Darl McBride" --- and google will answer "Did you mean Dark McBride?"
Are we going to let HP think that it's okay to back SCO.
I sure am. I think it would be cool if Compaq tech support started answering their phones like this:
"HP Compaq Tech support, a tiny division of a Big Blue Monolith. How can I help you?"

with a little consideration, organisation, and information
I consider organizing a good old-fashioned pitchfork-and-torches party, stay tuned for more information.

The roadshow starts in Toronto then moves to Boston. One quick phone call to US Customs from Toronto concerning a new extremist splinter group calling themselves Secret-Comdrades-of-Osama (SCO) ought to end the whole fuss immediately.

Yeah, Linux users may attend free, but then on their way out Darl will try to charge them $699, claiming that somebody else gave away the admission...
Stop by my site where I write about ERP systems & more
Are we going to see a cream pie in Darl's face?
It seems like the traditional response...

Money for nothing, pix for free
I've been stockpiling torches and pitchforks just in case an angry mob was needed. Looks like I might get a chance to use them.

Agreed. Unless it's the last breath, I'd really like to know about that one. And soon.
