Basically you are decribing Open Source. It's religion, not software development. And that is why it will never be anything without someone like SUN putting the project into glue. We should all be kissing Sun's ass because THEY are the ones that will kick M$ off their dias, not WHINERS like RMS and half or two thirds the jackasses who babble on here.
When I see stories like this on/. all I can think about is Comic Book Man. Typical degereration of a ounce interesting web sit a la FuckedCompany.... The slippery slope has arived.
Sure they may have told you, but the question is whether it's just that they didn't want to bother fixing something that was broken of if they did it intentionally to lock out the competition. One is just lazy, the other is pretty low.
How is it "low" to make sure a competitor can not piggy-back on your companies R and D? Shit cost money to develop, you know.
Anyone else noticed the LACK of an "News for Nerds" here at Slashdot, of late? I mean really, "Dr Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation"??? Unless it talks a whole lot about different ways to masturbate, no one here is going to know what to do with it.
But really, where did the "News for Nerds" go? Slashdot and BSD *ARE DEAD*.
It's fun to hear people spout off about this and that like they where God's personal lawyer. I'll bet RMS is just frothing at the mouth, and shitting his pants, but SCO **KNOWS** they got the lawyers and they got the money, so any "action" from the socialist Open Sourcers' just ain't gonna happen. IMHO.
You may *yawn*, but obviously you don't live up here in the Pacific Northwest, where the O.B. in the sky has brought back flashbacks from collage acid trips, and without drugs!
Really. I'm very suprised that M$ has never tried to just BUY aol. Get it over with.
But as we all know, Apple owns this space, M$ is always playing pick-up, as in pick-up what is profitable. And they say they are about INOVATION???? Please. Buying inovation is NOT the same as DOING inovation.
But you are wrong. In Thai and Viet, LEGIT versions of M$ cost no more than a few dollars. Microsoft is very aware of the price point in these countries, and prices accordingly.
But, they are still taking the high road with OS. I think the more countries, even the ones that "don't matter" make a difference.

Well, they should. The Jack off enough.
I'm sure that Timothy is masturbating up a storm over this!

Earth to stop rotating, RMS shaves beard and gives up masturbating, Slashdot starts running real stories, Hell freezes over...
Nobody sued anyone! This is a NON STORY. This is a week old non story. But of course, this is Slashdot, home of the non story.
"Not..." "No..." "Unconstitutional..." "Blaww, blaw, blaw..."
