  1. Never been asked about laptops on Tips For Taking Your Laptop Into and Out of the US? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I have been between Taiwan and the US, Shanghai and the US numerous times in the last two years carrying 2 laptops. Never been asked. In fact, the last time two weeks ago, I had two laptops, 1 for work and 1 for my personal use, and a newly purchased in Taiwan EEEPC netbook which I declared.

  2. Re:SUSE 9.1? on Linux Kernel 2.6.6 Released · · Score: 1

  3. Re:But...Has SCO rejected the GPL in court? on USENIX Responds to SCO; Fyodor Pulls NMap · · Score: 1

    Yes they have state in SCO's anser to IBM's amended ounter claim

    SIXTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
    The General Public License ('GPL') is unenforceable, void and/or voidable, and
    IBM's claims based thereon, or related thereto, are barred.

    "Void and/or voidable" might be a problem for "SCO". We saw
    that they looked to have some difficulties with other defenses (affirmations of
    fraud on the part of IBM in patent and copyright applications), they may have
    problems with these defenses too. Consider:

    EIGHTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
    The GPL violates the U.S. Constitution, together with copyright, antitrust and
    export control laws, and IBM claims based thereon, or related thereto, are
    barred.

    This looks to me like they do NOT accepot the GPL.
