Hey, the wine had already been paid for, who cares if the idiots want to waste it. They'll just have to buy more wine to replace it, which increases the amount sold, which drives the price up, which makes French wine growers happy.
Isn't it fun when your "enemies" are economic illiterates.

Thanks for offering us your nukes, but we've got plenty, thanks.
Come to think of it I wonder where they're targeted these days?:-)
This doesn't mean that Paris has poor broadband connectivity, it means that you have FUCKING BRILLIANT broadband connectivity:-)
How does th 10Mb ethernet in the wall work? (The non student stuff). What's the connection between your wall socket and the ISP? How far out of town can you be?
People in Paris do NOT have easy, cheap access to broadband in their homes (there is crappy, expensive ADLS, though).
Huh? I've had cable internet since March 1999, currently costs 47 EUR/month ('cos it's my company that's paying, if I paid it with my cable subscription it would be cheaper).
ADSL is a bit newer, currently FT are selling it at 45EUR for 512K or 80EUR for 1024K.
Duh, SVR4.2MP, the merge of the Sequent NUMA stuff.

This one was a real pain, Kodak's process was much better than Polaroid's. The end result of the lawsuit was that we wern't allowed to buy a better product.
Of course Kodak got the last laugh, Polaroid were destroyed by digital photography.
Many of the "high performance" features (SMP, NUMA, journalled file systems, etc.) that they claim IBM put into Linux aren't present in the original Bell Labs code, or even in SCO's latest-and-greatest OS offering.
You've been reading too much ESR. SCO's latest and greatest OS, UnixWare, has all of your checklist:
* SMP - had it since UnixWare 1.0
* NUMA - since UnixWare 7.0
* Journaled file system - since UnixWare 1.0
* Volume Manager - Since UnixWare 2.0
Things do get a bit less clear if you look at where these things came from, the volume manager and JFS are licensed from Veritas, and the NUMA stuff seems to have been written by Sequent (who are now IBM, of course).
This is about trade secrets, not patents. If IBM has used them in Linux it couldn't then claim that they're it's secrets if it buys Caldera (I refuse to call them SCO, they're not SCO).
Such leaps and bounds, ah yes. A quote from one
of the followups to the article:
These machines have been in production since something like 1996 and were EOL'd around 2001. i.e. this is not just 5 years old, its entire product line is 2 or 3 years dead.
Yup, Linux, so up to date it's just beginning to
suport hardware that hasn't been built for 2 years.
Well, I'm just trying to come up with some kind
of estimate. The only easy numbers to calculate are the energy available at the muzzle for both weapons. Youre comments bout the difference between muzzle energy and energy applied to the target apply equaly well to the laser gun.
To be realistic we'll have to shoot some lasers at big lumps of jello!
However, I still contend that the 5.56mm has more energy available at the muzzle of the weapon than the laser gun.

This is not the SCO you're looking for.
This is Caldera, trading as SCO, it has no Microsoft money at all.
Sounds a lot better in French.

I think you're missing the point.

Duuuh, of course Solaris (and not just x86 Solaris) is like UnixWare, they're both based on SVR4.

Have a look at a Unix family tree sometime, System V covers a lot of ground.

The SCO that Microsoft used to own a bit of is now called Tarentella, this SCO is just Caldera renamed, it's the bastard child of Novell.
Before they sued IBM they sued Microsoft, over DR-DOS.
Anyone tried They Hunger, Route 666?
