... hams with mobile tranceivers have parked up underneath power lines and have got poor reception, now they've got poor reception with added clicking noises. Probably more interesting than the stuff they usually listen to.

Having been a city dweller for more years than I care to remember, I recently had an assignment in Mongolia. I was working about 50 miles from the nearest group of tents, which is the closest thing you get to a village in that part of the world, and hundreds of miles fom the nearest town, I continuously found myself staring upwards muttering expletives to myself, a truly awsome sight.

In many ways this is worse than Orwellian, because at least in
Orwell's vision, you could still hide from the cameras or escape to
places that didn't have cameras on them. With this device if you had
it on (assuming it works as well as they claim (doubtful)) they could

Firstly this has been available for over 6 months and it works. Secondly the facility has to be enabled on the phone, and disabling is no more complex than a menu selection. Thirdly any cellular telephone will give away your location to anyone with even the most rudimentary equipment.
It's not that simple. To openly, or even cladestinely fund this type of adventure would suicide. No, when it's all over a few select personnel will move to well paid jobs in Redmond whilst the rest of the SCO staff will be left out to dry.
it seems, according to this story over on the Register that the US Navy is buying 260 Xserve boxes running Yellow Dog Linux for use in nuclear subs. Will SCO take on the Navy?

Government agencies, commercial? Watch out orphans you're next, Microsoft is gonna getcha.
I'm full of admiration for someone who can find the time to learn a language with which you can't actually do anything useful. Dedication to the point of self flagellation.
I would imagine SCO have already registered a Copyright and will be contacting you shortly to save you from unwittingly using someone elses intellectual property. Either that or the creditors.

Not that full time unfortunately, just a few months every couple of years.
However, I was using Oxford English in it's purest form.

No figures for this anywhere. Do you need a tin foil hat to use one?

But the constitution contains fragments of other documents which SCO owns.

No point, they'd grow back after another bottle.
