It's the people who you describe as zealots who are on the verge of transforming the IT industry and thus our world - who but a zealot would write their own operating system after all?
Maybe BeOS hackers don't have the same transformative potential and Linux kernel hackers, but don't knock it, one of these days you could be running a bit of software they helped devise.
Because a third party put the code under the GPL, not SCO.
First of all - you are missing the word allegedly and secondly, SCO issued many thousand copies of this code themselves under the GPL. IANAL but this strikes me as similiar to suing somebody for defamation when they merely repeated your own comments about yourself.
MS can then say "see, I told you so! GPL caused SCO to lose their IP!!!!".
But the GPL does cause you to "lose" your IP in this way. You lose it to the collective and in return you get back other people's IP. So who cares if MS say that?
in the source tree to KOS. just point it to/vmu/a1 or wherever your VMU is and you can download your saves to your PC. pretty handy.
That is not the same as being able to save an arbitray file on the vmu. You can do this in Linux eg cat/dev/mtd/0 > somefile, but having a filesystem driver means you can do something like: cp somefile/vmu/somefile
Well, don't get annoyed by the rhetoric think of the facts - a big, powerful and wealthy company (still) is going to point developers at Linux and because of the GPL, we'll all see benefits.
Why don't Apple Port OS X to i386 machines? Surely they could screw Linux in the corporate world as well as snap at the heels of MS. Do they really make so much money from their hardware business? If so, I doubt it would die as a lot of people like Macs for the look-and-feel (to coin a phrase) and that wouldn't go.
I suppose this is killed because although the universe is infinite, space-time is bounded. Still it seems to me this is more a mind game than serious scientific postulation. What is the point of a theory one cannot test?
How about some with regard to this? I am in Europe, so software patents don't apply as such, but I still wouldn't want to look at this code and then be threatened with legal sanction if I wrote a device driver that hacked a device previously only supported under Win CE. So anybody care to advise?
I got my first computer in 1980 and VisiCalc was big. So was a program called ZAP - can't remember what it was but I think it was a CP/M thing. Anyone enlighten me and tell me where I can see it/run it?
I had got quite far into this before I realised you were taking the piss. Then finally the incredulity reached the tipping poinbt and my synapses connected the date with the ludicrous nature of the RFC. But, I admit it, you had me going for quite a bit...
I have to say that 'nix 2.4 was a revelation after spending time using NT4. But Win2k is quite a good product. But MS will be on to a loser launching a costly product in the middle of a downturn - good news for Linux though and another reason why MS are being slaughtered in the server field.
SMS messages aren't cheaper. As they are unregulated they are cash cows for the telcos and a lot more expensive. They are popular because they are convenient and fun. Watching a football (soccer) game you can send a message without having to go into the whole how's the wife/kids/job/mortgage guff.
Is there anybody out their still using them (IIRC the Osborne was one). Their used to be lots in the UK (Amstrads) - but I was wondering if anyone out there was still using them (ie any CP/M machine)?

on average you are being ripped off by about $20.86
Isn't this what is known as profit?

How could you say that the leader of the largest democracy in the world is not a politician, first and foremost?
Because he's not the leader? He's the President. The "leader" is the Prime Minister.
Actually, PAL DC's do not have this date. But AFAIK no PAL DC has ever been found that WON'T boot.
Well, I suppose it beats shooting people, which seems to be the thing you guys love most.

Customize NetBSD
Ugh! Use Linux. It has sound support and even a filesystem for the VMU (memory card). See LinuxDC.Net for more details.

Go to Tikrit - wait a day or two - then there will be plenty to loot^H^H^H^Hacquire. Shipping costs and bomb avoidance might be a problem.

You cannot sign away the law. That's for congress! So, yes, if you have patented the idea you'll have some protection.

I think SF is brilliant, especially because it is free. Somebody really is paying for me to develop free software when I use it.
I am always a little worried though that it is a relic of the bubble era and will collapse, removing access to all the sources etc.
But BSD is dying! It must be I keep reading so on /.

This is /. - of course nobody read it. They were all posting desperately in the hope they'd get the low hanging karma-fruits.
