Slashdot Mirror
Caldera/SCO Co-Founder Ransom Love Speaks
securitas writes "CNet has published an interview with Caldera (now SCO Group) co-founder Ransom Love, in which he talks about the Novell acquisition of SuSE, Novell's Linux history, the early history of Caldera, the SCO-IBM lawsuit, his new role at Progeny and open standards. It's a good read that covers a lot of ground in a relatively short space."
Fart on my toast and eat it!
NO! This is just a tribute!
What the fuck kind of name is Ransom Love? And who would go into a tech business with somebody who sounds like he came out of a failed 80s hair band?
Until Slashdot fixes the funny modifier, use insightful or interesting. The poster knows your intentions.
"but they need Linux, and Linux needs them" . . .like a hole in the head.
+5, Funny
You pathetic karma whore. Here's the real quote sans your crappy edit.
"A: It's ironic, because Novell had everything when we were there. They could have owned Linux, and they could have pushed (Windows) NT right off the map. But it just wasn't the right time."
Owned Linux as in the lion's marketshare for Linux in enterprise purchases and useage. Please like you are why people like me post only AC.
I had to re-read it several times before I realized they were referencing someone's NAME. :)
If only you could spell.
