McBride Speaks, In Person And In Print

Posted by timothy on from the other-than-the-suit-how-was-the-parade dept.

Phil Windley writes "Darl McBride gave the keynote at CDXPO this evening and held a press conference afterwards. I've posted my summary of his talk and the press conference on my weblog. In his talk, Darl seemed to be saying "Don't hate me. I'm only doing what I had to do."" On the other hand, in this interesting interview with CRN, McBride comes one whisker from likening Linux users to drug users, renews threats to sue end users, and says "all the big guys" are out to get SCO.

    It probably came out formatted that way if you had HTML formatted selected and neglected to add BR or P tags (enclosed by the angled brackets of course) at line breaks.

    You could either add them in the future, or use plaintext formatting (selectable from the drop down menu beside the preview button...another handy tool)
