When you need to do authentication with parties outside of your organization you probable need to use a commercial CA such Verisign, but for internal use within your organization there is no need to do so. Personaly, for internal authentication I prefer to use a CA generated on one of our servers. It makes it easier to secure a VPN, for instance, if you own the the CA that signs the certificates that authenticate connections. The OpenVPN package provides a very comprehensive set of openssl tools that allows one to generate various certificates on Linux, Unix or Windows systems.
I think that problems with the music industry are mostly related to the poor quality of their products. I seldom hear new music that I'd have any desire to own, much less pay any money for. Most of the cookie cutter pap put out by the major labels isn't worth a nickle. For the occasional piece that I really do like, I'll spring for the price of the CD.
I have been using Firefox for about a month on my Windows XP box and I like it a lot. I have, however, observed a problem when I try to open PDF files through the browser. The browser starts up Adobe Acrobat then freezes. I don't know if this is a problem with Firefox or Acrobat, but it makes the browser useless for PDF files.
I have owned my 2004 Prius for about six months. During a typical week, where most of my driving consists of the commute to and from work, my gas mileage ranges from 46 to 49 mpg. I live in San Diego, California and the drive has a lot of up and down stretches which may tend to keep the numbers down. My best mileage is on the freeway during the rush hour commute. With speeds down around 15 mph, the car spends a significant part of the drive running on battery only. Unfortunately (or fortunately) my work schedule has me doing most of my commuting during non-rush hour times. During one week however, when I did have a 9 - 5 work schedule, I averaged 52 mpg as reported by the dashboard MPG readout. My wife and I have made one 840 mile round trip to Nevada since we have owned the car. We averaged 49 mpg on the trip with speeds in the 65 - 75 mph range. When I bought the car, I didn't expect to get the EPA mileage. Considering that I haven't changed many of my driving habits since I got the Prius, I am very happy with the mileage that I am getting.
I've been driving my 2004 Prius in the San Diego area for about 6 months now. My mileage typically varies between 46 and 49 mpg. The hilly terrain on my usual commute seems to keep these numbers down.
I had a similar caffine problem for many years after I started drinking coffee while in the Navy. About five years ago I was on a business trip and got samonella food poisoning during the trip. I barely made it home and was down for six days. Believe me, I had no desire for coffee during that time. After I recovered, I decided that since I hadn't had any coffee for almost a week, I would quit. It worked.
I don't have the 2.4.21 kernel source cited by SCO handy, but the the 2.4.20 kernel file lib/ctype.c, which is on SCO's list, indicates a 1991, 1992 copyright by Linus Torvalds. So SCO is saying that Linus did a cut and paste from System V source and removed their copyright notice? Give me a break!
I bought one of the Fry's ThizLinux boxes about six months ago to use as a server for our company intranet. Since I didn't know much about that particular distro, the first thing that I did was to load the current Redhat distribution on it. It has been running with no problems and performing its function well since then.
I do not consider the policy of putting returned products back on the shelf to be a problem. Just the fact that a particular product has a large number of repackaged items on the shelf is my cue to avoid that particular brand.
I have had mixed results with products bought at Fry's, but I have never had a problem returning an item. I have even returned a CD Writer that offered a rebate starting the day after I bought it. I just told the person at the return desk that I wasn't satisfied with it because I needed a receipt with today's date on it to send away for the $40 rebate. No problem, they gave me a refund, and I picked up another unit on the way out of the store.
I wonder why SCO wants a non-disclosure agreement to view the infringing code. If the Linux code in question is truly copied from Unixware, it is already out there for the world to see.

Actually, my Prius gets its best mileage in stop and go rush hour freeway traffic.
