They won't show a thing, can you imagine what it'll be like if they call everyones bluff and expose these "lines"? there will be loads of replies saying...err...that bits mine actually.

The dilcit tones on an IBM lawyer showing the SCO employees to their bankruptcy...
"Cruficixion? good, line on the left, one cross each"
Darn McBribe attached to an IBM branded crucifix, with Bill Gates and his gang singing "for he's a jolly good fellow"
Out comes the Centurian shouts out to all those attached to their crosses...
"OK lets vote, who wants to file for chapter 11 protection?...right, thats settled then"
And after the legalities end...
"cheer up Darl, some things in life are bad, your litigation makes us mad, your license fees made us swear and curse, when you're chewing lawsuit gristle, daaant grumble, give a whistle, and this will help things turn your pockets out...aaaaaaaaaand......"
This has prolly been asked many many times, but im going to ask anyway.
If SCO is charging for licensing Linux under the conditions of the multiprocessor code in the kernel source allegedly belonging to them, wouldn't having those features not compiled into a newly configured kernel nullify their claim to licensing Linux? If it doesn't, would this be because there is "other" code in the source that allegedely belongs to them?

I make quantum logic gates out of excitons all the time, in my backyard. Using common household items?
