So what you're saying is that if they win the case and prove that they have, say, 1000 lines of code. All that will happen is that that code will be removed and Linux will continue?
Why would they do that then, what would they get out of it? I mean, it'd be only a matter of time till everyone who has the tainted version of Linuz has upgraded (so as not to pay the license).
If thats all that will happen, why did they do it and why are people like Linus Torvalds so upset? I was under the impression that Linux could become propietary and owned by SCO if indeed it was tainted.
I always thought that it meant that they could claim ownership of those particular releases, whatever the future releases would be. That would give them a free, top notch OS which they could market and build from.
Couse I know nothing on this topic, so am I correct in this?
Or we want to rent them at at reasonable price. $6.00 is still too much to pay to rent but since its' still signifigantly cheaper than buying the film, and theres' no cheaper alternative, people pay it.
When you push for $7.00, and there is a cheaper alternative (i.e. renting as above), it shouldn't be any wonder that the product failed. Of course, I'm saying this in hindsight, but, had I know the price they were asking, I'd have predicted its failure anyways (BTW, I'm just a student, not a professional, I'm speaking as a consumer).
LotRs has opened up entire new venues of conversation with people who normally wouldn't be interested in that sort of thing. What kind of venues? Women.
I like the rocks as alien artifacts, they're cute. In fact, if it weren't for the 25cm of snow outside, I'd probably find a few myself. The world is alien if you spend too much time inside I think.
Let me recommend spending $350.00 (USD) on a decent bike. You can loose alot of weight just biking around and enjoying the scenery. I know it only works for 3/4 of the year though (winter is out). But, you're just gonna do yourself an injury if you stay on a bike thats' not suited to your body. I'd get off it asap.
My own personal favorite machine is a rowing machine like these. You don't need one near as expensive though, just make sure its got the fan. It builds the body and acts as a cardio machine. The only thing better than it is swimming.
I swear that makes me mad just reading it. Not only is it condesending, its an outright lie. I'm not a tech savy and I installed my own network card. It took longer to walk to the store down the road to pick it up than to install it, I'm sure you know.
I don't know if it helps but you only need 1 eye to see these. The maps were 2 top-view images of, say, a mountain range. One photo taken from the left side and one from the right side of the range.
You place the magnifier 1/2 over each (IIRC) and close one eye, not the eye you look into the mag with though, cuz then you only see black.

Thanks, but that was a serious question. Reference my following post if you know the answer too please.
And I'm buying Star Office instead of MS Office.

Couse then we'd beat them by infecting them with a trojan horse which would cause their mothership to explode. I can't believe I just said that.
Yes, but will it try to conquer the world?
I read that as Darleks!

As an enviromentalist, I'm pleased.

They know right from wrong and its' full of good people even if their economic laws are a bit totalitarian.
They saved the world during the cold war and always came in on the right side (however late) during the two world wars.

Thanks goodness you said that. I was getting seriously confused; and I couldn't figure out what ROTK now stood for.
What a nutcase.
at least the scammers aren't outsourcing to India.

Yours is the first prog I've actually understood.
I like the way you note how divine-patriotic justice fell down from the sky and hit your boss on the leg.
I can't believe I still know that...
And I don't understand the music too, its too complex!

The result is a 3D image. Hope that helps!
