IBM has been, as far as we can tell, sitting on their thumbs.
While I can't say this with full authority, I don't think they really are merely doing nothing about this. What I think they are doing right now is digging out a certain Nancy Sinatra song, looking in their closet for a particular pair of boots, and designing exactly how they are going to stomp all over SCO.
California Highways website (not related to CalTrans) is a list that describes the routes and history of every numbered highway - past, present, and proposed - in the state of California, as well as a bit of information on the multi-numerical El Camino Real.
There is a Links page from the front that will provide a huge compendium of lists to other resources for the road geek in you.
Face it dude, you gotta pay the bill somehow. They have to pay you, so you can pay them (read: the people who operate and maintain this network), so they can pay them (their creditors, the groceries), so they can... you get the idea. High school economics, anyone?
In many software projects that I've used, there was usually a "wish list" of some sort. It seemed clear that these were features that were, for all intents, yet to be included.
But a lot of people have made valid points. What constitutes "vaporware"? Does the mere inclusion of such a wish list make these features vaporware?
I think that, rather than having the courts do this, let the people figure it out. True, it won't work out so well (Windows 95, anyone?), but why should the courts have a say in how the market operates?
Why not inkjet? Epson puts out a pretty good one. Also, would it be better to go to places like Kinko's with a single color master? IIRC, color laser printers simply aren't cheap, and if it's a growing congregation, you can maybe get one on an NPO program, but again, *color laser*?
I see this article, and I hear this line from the Peter Gabriel song "Digging In The Dirt" come up.
Oops, I just violated DMCA. Better go turn myself in. But first, a word from our sponsor.
I'm gonna echo sentiments here: The D in DMCA stands for 'digital'. Sewing patterns are NOT digital. Your mom will tell you that, and show a particular flavor of Timex as an example of what is digital.
SCO wants some people to compare the code in their OS with code in Linux. Well, what if the code in SCO is older non-legacy code (IE, they kiped it) from Linux?
My response is going to echo a lot of posters here for this question. These are things you can do while you're (say) writing code.
First and foremost, don't be afraid to take yourself away from the problem. Side effects: you can sometimes focus more on a problem when you distance yourself from it.
Second, fluorescent lighting will contribute to the problem. They are HORRIBLE for your eyes. If at all possible, use halogen - it's closer to the sun's lighting than even incandescent. Keep in mind that there is a latent flicker in fluorescent lighting that only becomes very obvious when the bulb or ballast starts to go bad. It will strain your eyes, and no polarized or UV protected lens will stop this. This is why people wind up doing the bifocals thing after years and years in office environments.
Third, don't be afraid to go outside into the big room. You know, that room outside the installation with the bright blue ceiling during the day, or buncha pinprick lights at night? It's good for you, and...well, see my last paragraph regarding halogen lighting.

Might I suggest going here and learning how to ruin a VCR? You can apply the same exercises to a SCO box.

How come I haven't yet seen a mention of the Linux more or less everything repository?
2) Charge others to use your new system
3) ???
4) Lose money!!!!

Um.... In Soviet Russia, patent obstructs you?
I guess I'll have to just keep using tar and gzip. Many apologies to the late Phil Katz....
Dude, if you can't recognize sarcasm when you see it, try hitting yourself in the head a few times with a bottle of beer.
This guy's right, "What about the children?" might actually get something done here, as much as I hate the argument.
Whether the theory works, however, isn't really known.
Is MicroSoft evil?
Is the sky blue?
Are taxes too high?
Should we eat and drink and be merry? I mean, come on, guys, the answer is patently obvious. -1 on the article for redundancy.

83% of all statistics are made up on the spot. Corrolary: if it's accurate, it's coincidence.

But is it not your responsibility to report crimes, which could override an NDA?

Perhaps use high-index lenses, if you don't already do so?

...is the sound of the servers going down due to the Slashdot Effect.
Ya know, I think he may hate telemarketers. =)
"Actually, today's your lucky day! I have been selling this life insurance policy...."
"Well, I don't think it'll matter much, because you're the last person I'll speak to before I kill myself. You have a good reason for me to live?...."
Original article is here. In short, this is nothing new, and even in March the signups would have happened on or around July 1.
No, I'm not being a shill. No, really.
