Once I started reading about LinuxOne's corporate M.O. I had some real strong deja vu... I worked for a Taiwanese-led startup a few years back, and the shady dealings of LinuxOne come as no surprise. In fact, LinuxOne is cooperating with my former employer on some drivers... see http://www.maxspeed.com/index.html/pr/pr_11-12-99_ linuxone.html The group of executives I knew (and who no doubt are in contact with Dr. Wun C. Chiou of LinuxOne) was trying to apply some pretty naive (and probably Asia-centric) tactics. I didn't really catch wind of anything illegal (well, OK, I think the one time a manager offered me "medicine to help me work longer" might have been over the line) but it's no big stretch to think their associates aren't entirely on the up-and-up.
