SCO's McBride Testifies "Linux Is a copy of UNIX"

eldavojohn writes "Here's a short update on the Novell Vs. SCO case we've been following. Our good friend Darl McBride made some interesting comments in court yesterday. He stated (under oath): 'Many Linux contributors were originally UNIX developers... We have evidence System V is in Linux... When you go to the bookstore and look in the UNIX section, there's books on "How to Program UNIX" but when you go to the Linux section and look for "How to Program Linux" you're not gonna find it, because it doesn't exist. Linux is a copy of UNIX, there is no difference [between them]." This flies directly in the face of what SCO found in extensive investigations in 2002 and contradicts what SCO Senior Vice President Chris Sontag had just finished testifying earlier that day (testimony that McBride did not hear)."

Wow, mods. You guys are really good!. I would have never guessed that an anonymous coward could bait users into an emotional response[1] or generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion[2] with two words (three if you count the subject). This has to be the shortest troll ever posted at slashdot.

My hat's off to you! Proof positive that slashdot's moderation system is da verry bestast on earth!

You go, girl!

(Note: I'm stupid, of course. I would have moderated the post as offtopic.)
