    No, he's right. I have one of the new IBM rulers here, and it's very welcome.

    They reserve the option to own any Intellectual Property that you may create whilst in their employment. If you create, say, a porno novel or a thrash-punk album, their IP office would probably be quite happy to release the rights to you. unless it looked like it might make a mint, of course....

    Yes. OpenOffice is pure evil and will bring about the rise of communism, followed by the fall of civilization. The skies will burn and the rivers will turn red with blood. The Great Old Ones will return to bring unimagined terror to mankind and it truly will be hell on earth.
