I had a 10MHz AST 286 (with a whopping 8MB RAM) running Xenix SysV/286 (2.3.2). Served a small workgroup of about 8 people.
Later, we used ODT 2.0, ODT 3.0 and OSR5. The ODT2 system ran for 7 years straight with a single reboot (hardware upgrade -- added a second internal SCSI drive).
So much for those memories... Of course, I think that the SCO that we knew died when it was bought by Caldera.
In fact, that's probably why Bush the First didn't let General Schwarzkopf enter Baghdad in GW1
Yes, it was purely political, but not because of civilian casualties. GW1 was sold to the UN and Arabs as "Liberate Kuwait". If we had gone on to Baghdad, it would have been quite possible that Saudi Arabia would have gotten pissed (why do you think that we're staging in Kuwait and Qatar for this one), and told us to leave.
it's either the RIAA or Satan, right? I say choose the lesser evil.
Wouldn't that be Satan?
Ashamed to admit my cluelessness...

But what did they (claim to) do?
Wapit.com? iHarvest.com? CalendarCentral.com -- I can figure this one out, and the reviewer told us. OnlineChoice.com? -- What did they do that probably didn't require employees? SwapIt.com? -- What, you gave them your CDs for credit to buy other people's used CDs? Surprised the RIAA didn't shut them down before they went tits up:-P
See there are theese little things called borders in the real world,
Tell that to the French (Yahoo! case), the Aussies (Libel case), the US (Sklyarov), and the MPAA and RIAA (anything that would have them think up a new business model for the 21st century).
I think the theory was that since she was trid and [don't know verdict] of murdering him, and since you can only be murdered once, there was no way she could be tried for the second "murder", since it's impossible to murder a dead man... or is it?
The Last DJ... Well, some folks said they're gonna hang him so high cos you just can't do what he did. There's some things you just can't put in the minds of those kids. As we celebrate mediocrity all the boys upstairs wanna see how much you'll pay for what you used to get for free....
So why does anybody pay attention to the RIAA? Why does anyone take them seriously? They're just a bunch of whiners. Very rich, very powerful whiners. Whiners whose power absolutely depends on you giving them credibility.
Not quite. Whiners whose power depends on our elected representatives giving them credibility. And when they show up with a briefcase full of bribes^Wcampaign contributions, they get what they want.
Of course, ACTUAL sales are only supposed to be down 3%, but some of the CDs that they won't sell have more songs than others, so they're it's adjusted to 6% to account for that.
Slashdot Mirror
Byte and Switch is the National Enquirer of the storage world. (Or if you prefer, the Register of the storage world).
I was hoping for something more like Sky-Diver from the old UFO series!
Subpoena Man (can subpoena an ISP in 2 seconds flag)
RIAA Girl (but she's retiring from Ip Justice at the end of the year :-P)
Movie Marauder(can bribe a congressman faster than the bostons strangler)
Shark Man (Subpoena Man's brother, can file a lawsuit in 2 seconds flat)
etc...
It would be even better if there were a similar site for bills being considered. I did a keyword search for CBDTPA and got 0 results... hmmm.
I assume you used Thomas? Try the full name (or even a subset). A search on "Consumer Broadband" brings up S.2048 as the #2 result.
Who's Lacy?
You still have to wade through the spam periodically to check for false positives, in case something you did want to receive got filtered.
Nah, it would be GNU/USA.
I guess the Constitution is Open Source.
he has absolutely NO EXPERIANCE in politics. None.
And exactly why is this a bad thing? Would you prefer business as usual?
You too? Maybe they anticipated a slashdotting and disabled it temporarily?
At the risk of sounding AOL, "Me too!"

Don't ask me why Win9x notepad was designed like this.
Because it was essentially a menu wrapped around an edit control, and edit controls have a 64K limit in Win9x.

I bet he got his info here.
So *THIS* is Schroedinger's Cat?
(Yeah, yeah, I know it was Heisenberg, but it was too good a line to pass up)
Of course, he only really downloaded 60 songs, but since he had a DSL connection, the RIAA counted it as 600.

I believe that Aussies use the form dd/mm/yyyy for their dates.

Well, some folks said they're gonna hang him so high
cos you just can't do what he did.
There's some things you just
can't put in the minds of those kids.
As we celebrate mediocrity
all the boys upstairs wanna see
how much you'll pay for what you used to get for free.
So why does anybody pay attention to the RIAA? Why does anyone take them seriously? They're just a bunch of whiners. Very rich, very powerful whiners. Whiners whose power absolutely depends on you giving them credibility.

But if their karma is so bad, then why does the mainstream media keep modding them +5 Rich?
Never mind... just answered myself.
No, I think it's 60 zillion.
