I think the small print here is perhaps the most frightening of all. Why is Canopy getting involved with other linux vendors? What are they doing with their 'own' linux? Is this a plot to co-opt the linux businesses from the inside? Does Canopy have the resources to gain so much control of the major linux vendors to shut them down and make SCO the only game left in town?
over in this eweek article SCO claims there are 'millions' of lines of offending code. They also claim that they were talking to red hat before RH's suit and they were 'communicating'

it would be much faster if you hook the optical reader to your Epson DMP and let it scan in the source code, after you printed it on your color dyesub printer first, of course
Let us be realistic for a moment. How often is one going to do anything to a rackmount other than add ram and perhaps add more/larger drives? Rackmounts are kidna meant to live on the rack until they outlive their usefulness. Besides that, do you really think its a good idea to upgrade the CPU in a 1U rackmount unit? Lets consider. A rackmount unit really has to worry about airflow and cooling, A hotter CPU may cause unreliable performance. And speaking of unreliable. You dont buy a rackmount system to putz around with it. Often they are mission critical units. You wanna upgrade a cpu on a mission critical mail server for fun?
Assuming the OEM even makes a model that has a faster CPU and you can stick in yours, why didnt you buy the faster one anyway? By the time you woudl get around to 'upgrading' your rackmount the net gen technology would have already rolled out the door.
abuse every glitch? give it a rest. You install AV software. You keep it up to date. Or perhaps you want to explain to me how PA and MD state govt ended up getting stuck by a day zero virus?
Well i don't pity them even more. Its not like there hasn't ben a non-stop litany of windows viruses and security holes coming down the line in the past.. oh 4 years. If they haven't dealt with the issue by now they deserve to be fired as they are grossly incompetent.
The person that you got that mac from should have transfered the software over to you when you bought it. The license should have travelled with the box. However depending on the age. Apple does have system 7.5 available for free.
This should be no surprise to anyone. I recall (poorly) That MS doesnt allow (corporate licensers) you to even give away computers with windows on it. This is more of the same that 'you dont own anything, we are merely loaning it to you'
Welcome to the software feudal system. be sure you give the bigger share to the lord of the manner.
IBM could easily give a license for its patents to 'linux' or the fsf or whomever they desire. I think IBM knows enough not to shit were it eats. Unlike SCO
agreeing to a plea bargain doesn't always mean you are guilty. Being convicted doesn't always mean you are guilty. Try to find an article on NPR-This american life, about the innocence project. That is personal terrorism.
***I know nothing about this case i am not commenting on it in specific***
Something kinda similar happened with an after dark module. Berkley systems went *foom*, i guess some of the stuff got bought by Sierra/EA. However there was a lot of questions surrounding a game module called 'lunatic fringe' by
Ben Haller. There used to be some info about it on his page, something along the lines of that there won't be an update as no one knows who owns the copyright anymore.
Even if your clients dont know anything its certainly clear when someone is flailing. Knowing when you don't know something is wisdom. Knowing how to find what you don't know.. thats smarts. If your customers trust you because of your previous work telling them you will find out or you have to research is ok. People don't like being lied to.
The thing I don't understand, if SCO thinks they have a copyright infringement and 'conspiracy' case against redhat, why did SCO wait until they were sured by redhat to file. One would think that they would want to protect their 'copyrighted' materials long before this.
Re:not the answer - you got that right!

what would be useful in the current framework is a clear demarkation between *real* server headers and forged crap.
Thng is here as we have seen the spammers will just setup their own shops happily forging any credentials to the next relay point.. and so on..
This appeared to be really one of the few spam handling i have seen in a long time with a lot of potential. Im hoping that it will comeback in a different form someday.

Something smells very rotten here.
Unless of course you disagree with the govt:)
Of course SCO accepting the GPL by taking samba is only going to shoot telves in the foot come court time.
well its a good thing Ms has stopped developing outlook express:)
funny ive never gotten or sent an eml file, sounds like many mailers are borked
The MPAA is trying to get a bill passed that will let it DDoS SMS systems when they sense a bad review of a movie.
.nws and .eml, i think these were the nimda vectors from a couple years ago.

The only explanation is incompetence

Hello Mr. McBride, I'm agent Smith from the FTC. I'd like to talk to you about your stock.
well this one sounds like a clear case of perjury.
oh BTW these are the asshats we can blame for this kind of shoddy 'patrolling' Im going to sending out some nastygrams about this one. Snailmail.
I think you are referring to spooky action at a distance

Funny I remember when the CEO of Compaq told the troops that LArry said that tru64-unix was going to be the cornerstone of oracle development.
Course they also said no lay offs.
