I had a job, the pay was pretty bad, but I liked working there.
I interviewed and got offered a job:
1. 50% more pay 2. benifits
The problems with the job were:
1. Help desk job (been there, hated that) 2. The company didn't have the best track record (grow grow, fire fire, grow grow, fire fire) 3. The manager was way to happy to work for.
So after working another year at the lesser paying job, the company closed, and I then found a job paying double the job I turned down.
1. Take time off from work (just under two weeks for me) 2. Get a nice bottle of regular pain killer that doesn't have caffiene in it (No excedrin). 3. Prepare to sleep a lot.
I slept for up to 12+ hours a day for many days in a row. Headaches were horrible but the pain killer kept the edge off of them. I've been caffiene free for just over a year now.
All SCO is doing with this is playing the PR game. The Press Release is a simple move that tries to paint Redhat as a greedy sue-happy corporation (What? your suing us? I can't believe it).
This goes back to the many previous articles and opinions that have been posted on/. previously. SCO is trying to spread FUD they are, other then IBM, thretening shops that may not have the legal muscle to fight SCO. This sounds like many other patent cases where a company will build a "war chest" to build thier on hand capitol by suing small companies that will settle rather then fight, so that later they will be able to sue the larger companies for much larger capital.

It's about time that someone smacked them a little and said, "That's a not what we've come to expect out of the discs labeled CDs."
