"All your castles are now belong to us! And all your TPL, Bamba, TDP/CP, GUN and other computer thing are also now belong to us."
Sincerely, Darl "Mad Cow" McBitch --:) This just get better and better as time goes!!! At a certain point I was concerned, now I am just flat out amused. Can a court case be thrown out if the plaintiff is mentally inept? Is there a presedence?
Sure there will be cases where people will buy a Linux PC and then run pirated Windows on it, but the reverse is also true. Consider the following.
Take into account that there are plenty of people who own older hardware and upgrading is not an option. Imagine a middle class college kid whose mom and dad got him a Pentium Pro with 32MB / 2GB / Win 98 about three years ago. Now this kid has a choice: (32MBstick + Linux + WMaker + MozillaFirebird) vs. ($$$ h/w + 2000/XP + IE). My point is that there are plenty of people who (with the help of their geeky friends) will like to squeeze out more bang from their PC buck -- Even if it is to salvage more use out of their old PC. Kinda reminds you of that old proprietary Mac vs. generic PC battle, with a little twist!

Hi all:
:) This just get better and better as time goes!!! At a certain point I was concerned, now I am just flat out amused. Can a court case be thrown out if the plaintiff is mentally inept? Is there a presedence?

While some idoits are buying, it is not surprising to see what SCO insiders are doing.
