  1. NDA & Comment Question on SCO Shows 80 Lines of Evidence? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Could someone that seen the code tell you the comments so we could get it out of the Linux Kernel. I somewhat read the NDA and all I saw was stuff about code. It would be cool if that was a loophole SCO didn't think about.

  2. Re:Huzzah! on Ballmer Sends Wakeup Call to Staff · · Score: 1

    I think your wrong. Windows is the only OS I know that goes bad. I mean come on know you should be able to install and uninstall software as much as you want without the OS going to shit. I have to install Windows every 6 to 8 months. I will give you the compatability part but thats it and thats only because none of the hardware manaufacture think linux exists or matter.

    As far as installers I think Linux is way better Mandrake and Redhat are better. Just because they don't see a USB device during the install doesn't make the install worst then Windows. Have you ever had windows lock up on you in the install. I have many times. I have never had Linux lock up during the install.

    Why do you browse /. if the linux zealots will mod you down. Why don't you go find a windows board there. Then again you might just be trolling.

    In SCO's SEC filing they said that the collect all the Unix Royalites and they keep 5% as a administation fee and give 95% to Novell. I still think SCO is Full of SH$T.

  13. Re:I too have been very critical of Linus' Apathy on SCO Might Sue Linus for Patent Infringement? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Here is my take on it:

    Linus has said that RMS is the Pholisopher (sp?) and he is the engineer. The engineer shouldn't have a side it is RMS that should stand up. He is the one that came up with GNU and wrote the GPL licenses. Linus just used the licenses. I think Linus takes a good stance by not saying anything because he did create this community but he is not the leader of it.

  14. Re:Should Linus be afraid? on SCO Might Sue Linus for Patent Infringement? · · Score: 1

    Maybe Linus is waiting for proof. I mean what an idea, why whould he take a position on the topic ( something that could bit him in the ass in court ) without any proof. He is a bit smarter then that.

  20. Re:Linux a Puppy? on Economist article on Sun's Linux Strategy · · Score: 1

    So how is running Solaris on a 1000 different boxes with different configs and loads easier? How about Solaris running on X86? I will give you that Solaris is rock solid on thier own Platform.

    Solaris still needs upgrades and patches. Like I said in the first post. The article said you have to watch after linux like a puppy. What OS don't you have to look after? I heard Windows is really rock solid. No need to keep an eye on that OS. :) Any good Sys Admin watches his/her systems and patches them when needed. They are all puppies even if they run 64 processors and 128GB of RAM.

  21. Linux a Puppy? on Economist article on Sun's Linux Strategy · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Linux is not a puppy. I ran Redhat 6.2 for my firewall until just like a month ago. Linux doesn't have to be upgraded and tendered to. Maybe for exploits but Solaris has those too.

  25. Made Up Examples on SCO Claims Kernel Contains UnixWare Code · · Score: 1

    How can the bring in a segment of code and say "You see this is in Linux and they stole it". I can do that now if I wanted. Wouldn't the whole source have to be released make sure it actully fits in SCO. What if I claimed I wrote the code 8 years ago. Then all it is, is a pissing match. IP without a pantent is quite hard to proof IMHO.
