Dear RIAA,
You have won. All of us misadjusted p2p users are no longer sharing mp3s of legitimate artists. Instead, we now trade songs of our children banging on pots and pans.
Sincerely,
Your Customers.
PPTP is not very secure.

If you are taking the trouble to replace WEP, you might as well replace it with a good solution.
That being said, the worst mistake would be to deploy a "fix" incorrectly... ie: an improperly configured IPSec box is far worse than a correctly configured PPTP.
Obviously SCO is grasping at straws now. Linus created Linux before SCO owned the patents, so any role he himself may have/had originating things took place before it was sold.
In addition, I think Novell must have a strong case otherwise they wouldn't have spoken out. They were not part of the original debate, so why would they enter it if they didn't have solid grounds to prove their point?
If you own shares of SCO, you may want to ask the board why the CEO/president is running around wasting company money on frivolous lawsuits when they could be spending it on product development.
