Vonage is great for the most part. The little motorola router(?) or whatever they send you seems to crash kind of easily and has to be rebooted every now and then. The main reason I switched was the cost. It is so much cheaper than Qwest. I would hate to see them taxed into oblivion and have to switch back to a landline that is going to be sent over the internet anyway.
One thing I thought of, and forgive me if this has been posted before. If this whole case is about code that IBM has contributed to Linux, then why doesn't someone at IBM run the AIX code against Linux, post the results of what they've contributed, and then tell SCO to point to what they're complaining about? The only drawback I can see would be SCO pointing to all of it, but IBM's defense seems to be at least partly built on the issue that it's IBM's code and not SCO's and that they can contribute it if they want.
Why not just run around yelling about SCO's license to Unixware being invalid, and then freely distribute it under a license that you create. It would be close if not the exact same thing that they are doing with Linux.
Although something tells me that Darl & Co would see it differently. Might be nice if it got taken to court and the similarities were pointed out. It would either give you free reign to distribute their code, or it would be a major hit against them.
and then once you do their survey, they have an established "business relationship" which then allows them to try to sell their crap exempt from the no-call lists.

Shouldn't it be GTA5 since Vice City was the 4th?
