And now we know why Hollywood's been so focused on creating perfect CGI characters. It gets rid of all that overhead you just listed. Save a few million here, a few million there, pretty soon you've financed one hell of a render farm.
Back then I had a red LED square-window display watch with the name Hewlett Packard on it. It was gold-toned, weighed a ton, and had a battery life measureable in days. Had to push a button to read the time, though. I can't remember what I paid for it... might have gotten it cheap since I was always in customer training in the HP Cupertino plant in those days.
...sued the head of clan McDonald, Lord Godfery MacDonald. He said: "McDonald is one the most famous names in the world. McDonald's everywhere must be furious at the way their name is being used."
There's nothing more dangerous than a bored lawyer.
I'm a perennial SuSE user. I originally chose SuSE for its use of the KDE desktop, because it was similar to all the CDE UNIX boxen where I worked. However, if Novell starts to muck about with SuSE then I will beat a hasty path to Mandrake's door instead. And all Mandrake has to do to have me as a customer is to just keep up their support for KDE while SuSE goes the way of the Gnome.
It's not that I don't like Gnome, I just want to stay with KDE.
This means they'll have to pay SCO even more money! How will SCO keep up with all this burgeoning Linux progress? It must be simply overwhelming having to retract and re-write all those low-level blackmail letters. (grin)
Maybe it's because I used the search term "litigious.bastards" (the period directs Google to return results only for sites with both words adjacent). Anyway, doing it again today I find a SCOX reference has moved into the number 3 spot (caladan.nanosoft.ca) as well as the #7 and 8 spots.
On last night's Screensavers, I think I heard Leo LaPorte say something about how Jay Leno was unmercifully ribbing Bill Gates throughout the keynote speech. I'd love to see a video clip or even a transcript of that. Any links?
I've got a second 80GB drive in a ViPower hot-swap mobile data rack. Less than $100US for the lot. I just pop out my Windows drive and plug in the backup when I want to image my Linux drive.
I don't keep anything important on the Windows drive so I don't need to back it up.
You're violating the DMCA. I'm not exactly sure how you are, but I'm sure you are. If you're sharing DVDs with the bro-in-law, then the MPAA isn't getting every last penny it's entitled to. And the DMCA was written to wring that last drop of blood from your lifeless grey corpse. The MPAA stormtroopers are probably subpeonaing Slashdot right this very moment to discover your identity.
While I was reading your post, I could feel the neurons in my head being sucked out. Now I gots a overwhelming urge to go out and buy me a pick-em-up truck, a gun rack, and a CB radio.
Sometimes I wish I were living in a modern progressive country like the U.K. instead of my current home in the third-world technological backwater that the United States is so quickly becoming.
I know, I can love it or leave it, eh? How totally sixties of you. Besides, it's way late and I'm just lolling and trolling about....

I wonder what it would be worth now?

As soon as your directors gain "an understanding of what is going on in IT", then they can put that information in their new offshore outsourcing RFP.
You can be damned sure they don't care about your welfare.

I volunteer my boss! He's so full of hot air he could singlehandedly create an atmosphere.
I'm a paraplegic. This is the most socialization I can get.

Like I said, way to go guys!
No, you have to do this: litigious bastards.
I just Googled for "litigious bastards" and a SCO entry is now in the #6 spot!
Way to go guys!
I've a suggestion for companies like Infosys and others planning new RFID projects. If they want to track my shit, just make the chips edible.

Sheee-it.
It'll probably turn out to be an alien goatse when they finally get it decoded.
