On: Apple Sued Over Unix Trademark

I take it to mean something that has passed the OpenGroups tests.

I take "unix-a-like", "unix based" and "un*x" to mean "Open source clone that can not aford the fees" or "Almost like Unix, but missing some stuff".

I'm sure you have never heard of half the standards groups that exist, that does not make them invalid.

On: Bayesian Filtering For Dummies

Not many people know were the term "spam" comes from, but everyone[1] knows what it means (email wise), and it does come from the Monty Python sketch.

However it did not orginally go with bulk email, but instead with some wanker on posting the same post over and over again on a newsgroup or IRC.
