Ouch.. a bit harsh. I simply wanted to express my thanks towards IBM for sticking with Linux and for showing real support. No I didn't expect SCO to scare them off, but I am still glad to see it didn't happen.
Well if you put together a wide open distro using linux, that can be cracked by 1yr old babies, no, it won't be secure. To say a system is secure or not requires an analysis of more than just the kernel. Hence a secure label needs to be obtained on a per distro basis I suppose.
If we assume that justice prevails, and the right side wins, then size and amount of money doesn't matter. Hence point 2 seems to suggest to me that SCO wastes a little bit of money beating Red Hat. This isn't good. That gives SCO a very important win under their belt. And Red Hat would not bring forward a case they thought they would lose just to get SCO to waste some money.
Red Hat must seriously think they have a case, and they have the size and money to win it. I hope they are right.
Well to get pedantic.. other nations didn't fight on behalf of the USA/USSR.. they fought for their own reasons. However the USA/USSR backed opposite sides for their own political/idealogical reasons. While it's fair to say USSR backed vietnam beat USA backed Vietnam, that's not the end of the story, USA backed Afghanistan beat the USSR directly, only for the Afghans/Taliban to turn against the USA in recent history.
Perhaps IBM are backing Red Hat, and one day Red Hat will try to destory IBM:)
Not quite. If I ask you how much of a fucking retard you are, that's not the same as asking how much of a fucking retard you aren't. The answers are very different. The answer to the first is: a lot. The answer to the second is: very little

I think what this means is that they can pick Linux and have a piece of paper supporting their choice. Got to cover their own backs I guess.
Glad to see they aren't letting SCO scare them away from giving Linux their support time after time
Will I ever see XD2 for Mandrake 9.1 or 9.2 or any future version? What's in it for Novell to develop XD for any other distribution?
Why didn't I?
Just commenting on point 2.

More interestingly: What length WON'T MS go to in order to preserve their market share?
'prior art' is two words
No, no! It's cache them!
Better yet, use mass drivers on them and bombard whatever country we decide is in the axis of evil that week.
As we're correcting people: It was the ides of March.
Ahh.. I know which pill you took!
What is the matrix?
but it is time for MS to move out!
Technically it wasn't shoplifting. They did leave behind a credit card.
