Basically, the court says they have nothing to fight yet, since the Frogs haven't taken Yahoo! to court in the US. When that happens, Yahoo! may use the US Constitution's first ammendment to protect itself.
Yahoo! had essentially been jumping the gun when it asked US courts to clear it from having to follow the French court order. No need for anyone to get hyterical here...
As others have mentioned, Sun can't GPL code they licensed. (Remember the first open source mozilla code?)
Thus we'd be given a nearly useless, incomplete operating system. If the Sun-owned Solaris code is truly GPL'ed, the Linux folks would pick all the good bits out of this carcass and discard the rest.
Thus nobody would use OSS Solaris, but Linux might be improved here and there. So, I highly doubt Sun will truly GPL their code.

Since when are you "paying" for these extra features? The service provider is the one paying!
For example, via Amazon you can pick up a shiny new nokia 6610 with T-Mobile and get $50 cash back (net after rebate). If you buy a simpler phone you won't get more money back. T-Mobile (and the rest) are betting on you using and paying for the extras in usage.
If you just want a plain-old cell phone, the extra features will not stand in your way...
Why would anyone assume that the "sponsored links" are somehow independently managed by an editor? So what if the BBC comes out on top--it just means that they paid the most.

It would seem that SCO is claiming ownership of the error codes themselves, not necessarily the character-for-character code of the.h files. Maybe SCO is claiming that this is some kind of illegal (by DCMA) reverse-engineering of error codes, though kernel 0.0.1 predates the DCMA by years, and SCO can't exactly claim the codes were under some form of encryption...
Slashdot Mirror
Hmmm, I neglected to mention it in my post, but strangely, I am also 37... Maybe no one older OR younger...
... or download the Linux version...
... doubt anyone reading slashdot under 45 has heard of that one...
Can I get that off DECUS?
When will this stupidity end?
When everyone stops buying from Amazon.

Oh crap--I'm qualified!

How does 108 mbps, or twice that of 802.11g, figure to be 600% faster than 802.11g?
I think it's spelled "Sweeeden".

Oops!!
In #2 I meant to write that CRT's are sturdier, cheaper, brighter, etc...
Oh you bleeding edge technology people!
Papyrus not good enough for you, eh?
1: CRT:s can be flat too.
2: LCD:s are woefully inadequate in many applications, as they are sturdier, cheaper, brighter, etc...
