1) The disputed code is under NDA, and SCO are being tightwads and not letting it escape. They know that the instant the disputed code escapes, it will be re-coded and re-integrated in a way that removes this aspect of their case.
2) SCO also claims that it has process-patents, which I think means that no matter how you rewrite the code, it still DOES the same thing, which makes it a violation of their IP.
In summary, I think that what SCO should really do is bottle up whatever drugs they're smoking, and start selling them for these licensing prices. At least there would be a demand for the drugs, they seem rather potent.
You've misread the article slightly. The article said they had improved on it vastly, reducing it from 14 minutes spent rebooting to merely 36 seconds average total time spent rebooting per flight.
And here I thought that VCRs would only generate Blue Screens before and after a movie started... This brings them a whole new potential career - displaying blue screens in the middle of movies!
I've only used Eclipse 2.0.2 - if what you say is true, I think it might be time to update:)
The PHP outline is courtesy of the WebSphere plugin, afaik.

It's mostly just that I prefer the HomeSite method of project management.
HomeSite creates a project file (projectname.apf) in the top folder of the project. It contains a complete list of all the files in the project, and can organize it either by physical folders, or by having virtual folders (sort of like symbolic links, I suppose). All of these.apf files are stored in the registry (eww, I know), and come up in a drop-down list so that users can instantly switch between projects. You can also define projects which concern a subset of an existing project. For instance, I have a "beryllium.ca" project and a "confuzzled" project, and the beryllium.ca project happens to include the confuzzled project (although aside from including the files, there is no special bond between them - at least, not in the project management software itself).
That, and the difference in search/replace, and subtle text editing differences (drag and drop editing, for example), is why HomeSite is far more comfortable to me than Eclipse. Although I really do like the PHP function outline feature.:)

I dislike the way that Eclipse seems to handle projects.
I work on multiple projects at once, sometimes projects have sub-projects, and none of them are located on my local machine. The way Eclipse handles them is... less than desirable, in my experience.
What I really like about Eclipse is the PHP addon, with its function/class outline view. I just wish that, if projects were properly implemented, that the addon would be able to outline all of the functions in the entire project. Now THAT would be cool.

As did the book Tuck Everlasting.
... there are two problems with that:
1) The disputed code is under NDA, and SCO are being tightwads and not letting it escape. They know that the instant the disputed code escapes, it will be re-coded and re-integrated in a way that removes this aspect of their case.
2) SCO also claims that it has process-patents, which I think means that no matter how you rewrite the code, it still DOES the same thing, which makes it a violation of their IP.

Somebody took my stapler.
It's okay, I found it humorous. General Protection-Fault really needs to start explaining his actions, however.

No, it has nothing to do with Microsoft. I just thought the mental image would be amusing. Sorry it didn't tickle you pink.
Maybe this picture of (what may be) Steve Ballmer will entertain you more.
Oh, wait, just clicked it in the preview. It appears that they've replaced the goatse picture with a teletubbie orgy.
Welcome to Microsoft Airlines, your Stewardess today will be Steve Ballmer.

I've hit a catch-22 situation (after upgrading Eclipse), which the HomeSite methodology avoids.
I cannot create "beryllium.ca" and "confuzzled" projects in Eclipse. Why? "C:\Internet\www\confuzzled and C:\Internet\www\ overlap".
HomeSite doesn't have that problem.
No, working sets don't help, as I cannot create a working set without first having defined a project. Therefore, catch-22.

Good idea. :) I'll look into that.

I've never heard of the Canadian Broadcasting Network, is it good?

Now I can FINALLY fit my harry potter books on disc ...

Well, they're not that long, but still
Okay, fine. I can fit the movies. Satisfied?
