Nautilus is not a filesystem browser. It is a filesystem manager. It can browse the filesystem if you select the option to "browse the file system" which is what the parent post is talking about.
Don't confuse a browser and a manager. They are not the same.
I'm I the only one that thinks Intel is playing tricks.
As the differences in the two architectures become more commonly known, Halfhill said that he believed a single version of a software program could be written to support both architectures, by avoiding all but the instructions used by both processor families.
Couldn't they use their market power to slowly remove the best features of AMD64 this way???
He did not say that Anderer said Microsoft had 50 "disruptive lawsuits" up their sleeves. Andere implied that this whole thing with SCO is just the beginning of what microsoft will do.
The threat was very clearly implied and it is telling that you all want us to undermind what he implied.
You are right but I don't see how this has anything to do with the GPL. It applies to every software distributor out there.
The argument is always that the GPL specifically transfers some liability that other licenses don't. By your argument, Somebody can sue IBM for code it got from Computer Associates.
How does the GPL transfer liability. Liability != Waranty.
They did not need to terminate SCO's license. It was already terminated when they claimed the GPL was invalid.
They could have just put them on notice of violation. This gives people the false impression that you need to explicitly terminate the license of a violator. You don't. The license is 'automagically' terminated if they person/entity does not accept the license.
Just use VPN through it and it comes down with the slightest traffick between the VPN server and client

According to this article They made a big mistake.
"
OpenBSD 3.4 was a real stinker in these tests. The installation routine sucks, the disk performance sucks, the kernel was unstable, and in the network scalability department it was even outperformed by it's father, NetBSD... If you are using OpenBSD, you should move away now.

Mark Heise says: "We encourage the public and commercial Linux users to read the Asset Purchase Agreement from 1995 (including Attachment E found at www.sco.com/novell)"
Simply put attatchment E is a list of programmer manuals and user guides. So now we know what oldSCO bought from Novell.
The question is: Does their contract with SCO permit SCO to demand the color of their underwear? I think not.
SCO is trying to push their licenses beyond limit and these companies should not be fooled to yield. They should only reveal what is specified in the license.
I don't see how they can be in problems by saying "we are complying with the terms of our licenses to the best of our knowledge" and end there without any mention of Linux.
That IMHIANALO is how they should respond, except of course they were stupid enough to sign a license giving SCO permission to checkout their underwear any time the please.
Computer Associates, Fujitsu and Hitachi today joined original lab sponsors Hewlett-Packard Company, Intel Corporation, IBM and NEC Corporation in supporting the lab. Miracle Linux, Mitsubishi and Covalent joined original members
Caldera, Dell, Linuxcare, LynuxWorks, Red Hat, SGI, SuSE, Turbolinux and VA Linux as additional contributors and sponsors. The lab is managed by an independent board and officers, as well as a full-time director and staff.
Wipe of the smoke from your looking glass and you may start seeing that you don't understand what success is. Nor do you understand what beauty is, nor do you understand what wealth is.
True wealth is not measured in money, true beauty is not measured in body form or shape. Only a fool would want a wife he can afford. What determines survival is not how you look or how much money you have.
No doubt the world is in such a downward plunge. Because people like you don't grasp what it means for a human to succeed. If you think Bill gates is a success because of his financial wealth, think again. He may even be one of the most miserable people on earth. The fact that he would struggle to acquire all the money he has is an indication that he hasn't found what he is seeking in life. If only he could get a clue that maybe success is not all about money.
What is nice about Linux is just the fact that it eliminates greed. If that is communism, then so be it. For the same reason you would argue that democracy is anti-evolution because it respects the rights of the minority. Or maybe you agree that humans should be allowed to 'con' each other if they can since that is survival of the fittest.

Is what the real question should be.
Nobody can answer the question that says what will the world be like if X did not exist? Or what will the future be like if X stops existing?
The point is our decisions today will determine what the future will look like to us. We haven't made all those decisions yet so the question is:
What will you want the (computer) world to be like in the future, and what decisions should we make toward that.

But they have a legitimate license from the original distributor. So it still doesn't explain this line of reasoning that liability is transfered?

No Apache license has ever been GPL compartible.
Just check the FSF page. It applies only to the flow of code and derivative works not to the use of the software.
So the Apache guys can not use GPL code in their project because of the license.
If you are working for SCO quite before the sinking ship pulls you down with it.

You are right, I was wrong. It is not the CoolClean theme but the CleanBig theme As shown here.
I saw it on CNN and it was infact the clean big theme.
They are using the Cool Clean window manager theme which was default under redhat 7.x. Compare with this screenshot
Looks like Gnome 1.4 on RedHat 7.x

I did exactly the same as you. I still have my pascal code for it. It is interesting how often the wheel is reinvented.
