They also have a very good Linux forum for thrashing out ATI issues. Without them I would have never known about the schneider-digital drivers for my graphics card and would have been stuck with with an older version of XFree86 or no 3D acceleration. Thankfully the official ATI drivers seem to have gone "legit" now.
Yes. Any company smaller than Microsoft and that doesn't have several billionaires on staff must be considered unsuccessful. I find your ideas fascinating and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
Redhat has little say in what version of the kernel Debian ships and it certainly has absolutely no control over the compatibility between a Dell servers and FreeBSD. The only proprietary parts of Redhat are the free stickers in the box.
updatedb is run from/etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron (in Redhat, I assume other distros have it somewhere similar). You could move the file somewhere safe or just comment out the two lines that do anything. You may want to run updatedb from the command line now and again to keep the locate database up to date (probably before going to get the coffee).
If you build a failover cluster of reliable machines that can manage a long uptime then their service will not need to be unavailable for 4 minutes at 3am.
"Though Microsoft may soon be blocking Office suite compatability with open source productivity tools"
Microsoft may soon be blocking office compatibility with ANY productivity tools. They don't care whether the source is open or closed, just that it is not a Microsoft product.
"They could strongly suspect the claims are baseless, and even if they aren't it's not going to be resolved for a good 2-5 years."
That's assuming that SCO will still be around 2-5 years from now.

Heh. If this were an Amiga demo scene party all the above would be compulsory. Nobody likes people turning up empty handed and trying to borrow explosives and drugs from other guests.

"And sure, they haven't directly contributed much in the way of new code"
Yeah Redhat and its employees like Alan Cox have hardly contributed anything!
1a. Invest heavily in open source development, quality assurance testing and support infrastructure.
"Thats where I print all my ebooks."
I think you may have misunderstood the idea of ebooks.

"No engine company is going to make any money supporting Linux when there is no hardware out there to run their game. "
I get around 130 fps in quake 3 arena on linux and an average of around 80 in UT2003 with everything turned up all the way.
That dosen't seem so bad to me.
Look again. ATI Radeon drivers XFree86 4.3
Works fine with my Radeon 9700
"Quite frankly, I'd be sure to use only a tested release for a critical task like this."
You mean tested by the completely neutral company that has sole access to the source and is selling the software?
Even better, an informative on-topic and truthful first post from the Iraqi information minister.

"What good will a DVD drive be on a Linux machine? "
DVDs can be used to store data or video, the DVD drive could be used to retrieve this information.

Yes obviously Linux will be solely used by hobbyists until there are more Motorola propegation simulators, it makes much more sense now.
Somebody inside the organisation has to have access to the data, otherwise why bother storing it.
Can I interest you in a write only drive array?
It seems any crime perpitrated within 500 yards of a computer is now termed "hacking".

"The only place Netware is still installed is in already existing places,"
As opposed to non-existing places?
I hope Netware isn't dead, my 17000 users will be most annoyed if their data is gone. Wait here I'll go and check.
Suse sued SCO
But can you say that three times, fast?
