It's not a troll; it was an attempt at contribution. Milo clearly doesn't speak English natively and is using Babelfish to translate directly from German to English (the syntax is obvious; check out his journal). I think the guy is doing OK!
... and, of course, MS knows that you'll want to watch a movie, complete an Excel spreadsheet, index your digital photo collection, and download music while simultanously searching for all documents containing the phrase "out of touch with reality". All from within the same application, naturally, so it'll be fully supportive of JavaScript and ActiveX.
Yabut... what does your corporate warm fuzzy philosophy have to do with the price of tea in China? The discourse here is about the viability of your product, not what nice guys you are.
We got involved in your affairs after nearly a hundred and fifty years of rather insular behavior because Europe couldn't manage to keep the lid on.
Let's see, 1941 - 1918 = "nearly a hundred and fifty years"? More like 23...
Don't get me wrong -- I absolutely agree with you (and I myself am Swiss); you make a valid point. If more European politicians had understood and accepted Wilson's 14 points, the subsequent European conflict and all that ensued therefrom need never have taken place.
So that you can recall them
So that the pilot, upon seeing the target is not quite as imagined, can abort the mission
So that you can have an accurate, in person, assessment of the actual scene. There are quite a few videos floating around from Iraq that show last minute targeting changes only possible by an onscene human.
Yeah, I remember hearing about a "last minute targeting change" in Afghanistan by a guy named Harry Schmidt. Remember him? Four Canadians, your ALLIES, paid the ultimate price for his judgement -- or lack thereof.
There's more. If this actually makes it to trial, SCO will have to prove that they actually do own the copyrights. You can't successfully sue someone for slander of title to something that you yourself don't own ("I hate the way you people are always slagging IE; I'm taking you all to court!").
The projectiles are neither biological nor chemical in nature. They are not made of radioactive materials. They are, in effect, big crowbars.
In fact, rocks are probably a slightly better analogy. These things are just an extrapolation of the concepts ensconced in a catapult, a trebuchet, or a ballista: hurl enough kinetic energy into your target and stuff happens. Just really fast rocks...
The first good candidate was CodeWeavers' Crossover, which the Java Desktop uses to run Windows web-browser plugins. However, CodeWeavers doesn't offer support for Project. If it had, Crossover would have been a good choice: it's fast, resource-light, and inexpensive at $54.95 per person.
Related to Crossover is WINE, a free software project supported by the CodeWeavers team. Regrettably, it doesn't support Project, either. Nor do the two other well-known free projects, BOCHS and Plex86.
This whole "SCO is teh suck" mentality is stifling innovation at this company that has developed many products that have improved computing as we know it.
Could you please substantiate your argument by naming just one (1) product that SCO (current incarnation, The SCO Group, not the original company) has actually developed which has incontrovertably "improved computing as we know it"?
Otherwise your position is as meritless as SCO's own.

It'll be realistic enough only when it can blurt "Ow! Shit!", and yank away when they hit a nerve.
Ken! Ken Brown! How nice to see you on Slashdot!

WINE wouldn't support MS Project, which was specifically what the author was trying to run.
Otherwise your position is as meritless as SCO's own.
How about a clickable link?

Thanks a lot, pal! You just made me snort coffee all over my keyboard! (Worth it, though; that was excellent!)
I, for one, welcome our new incredibly well-muscled female rowing overlords!
Can you say "EULA"? You don't really think they'd allow that, do you?
Thank you, happyfrogcow! That was the best laugh I've had in a l-o-n-g time!
