Don't worry, when FreeBSD finishes (or starts? I don't know anything about the sparc progress...) its Sparc port, we can have more quality movies made on quality hardware.:)
Is it because you're in denial or is it because you're jealous that you (you being all of the people who have had negative comments) decide to post such things about this press release?
I hope to see more FreeBSD-related articles on slashdot.
45% of it is denial. 45% of it is ignorance. 5% is sheer and utter stupidity. 5% is unexplainable/unknown.
That's roughly correct regarding the posts that are against this press release.
I'd like to see more FreeBSD stories on slashdot. Hopefully one of these days those who knock FreeBSD without a very good reason will realize how wrong they were.
Microsoft won't do this. They aren't stupid. Microsoft is one of the smartest companies I've seen. Who else can sell total sh*t to its customers and still have the market by the neck?
I see that your life sucks, though. At least your work life. I don't see how anybody can use Windows NT and be happy. Isn't Windows NT supposed to be the "Power User's" OS for both the workstation and the server? And isn't supposed to be so easy? How odd. My mom is completely computer illiterate and she likes using my FreeBSD box more than the Windows NT boxen at work. Why?
Oh, and the salary for a *IX admin tends to be way better than that for an NT admin.
It was argued that it could be stated in court (if M$ does write its own Linux, which is unlikely) that Linux isn't UNIX. It could also be argued that court can say that Linux is a UNIX workalike, and acts like UNIX more than, say, DOS, or something else non-UNIX-ish. Being a FreeBSD user and having only limited Linux experienced, I bet I could run a Linux box with little extra reading. This is because they're both [like] UNIX.
SCO owns the Unix source code. SCO also had some sort of legal agreement saying that Microsoft _can_not_ develop Unix. Doing so would get MS in yet another law suit. And they'd most certainly lose.
SCO would. It would be illegal for them to release anything Unix or remotely like Unix. Sorry, your paranoia and the same paranoia of the same thing coming from many other people is entirely invalid.

Exactly what is it that you're talking about? It seems that you are incapable of understanding sarcasm, using punctuation, etc. Since he was being sarcastic, I'll skip pasting in his mentions of PINE and Lynx. What does '94 have to do with *anything* ? I'm 13 and I doubt anyone really cares how old anyone else is here.

I don't think -STABLE has the latest NFS patches that make it stable. In -CURRENT, I
hear NFS has been almost perfected (in the kernel.)
I've known about this for almost a year.

I hope you're not trying to say that there is false information being provided in the press release.
Normally I hate it when people argue like you do. But at this point, I agree profusely.

Nope. It's `entry' into the browser market (even though everybody uses Netscape ...)
SCO had the contract after Xenix. Go read up on it sometime.

Upon doing so, they would get themselves in "Yet Another (TM) Law Suit."
I suppose Red Hat CDs are free.
Time for your TLD refresher.

SCO would have Microsoft's ass on a platter if they did this, and you know it.
