Well, tied selling is generally frowned upon or outright illegal in some states. The cable companies' systems always struck me as borderline illegal. It will be interesting to see where this goes.
The USA is a Socialist state and the state has a duty to protect the old, the young and infirm. The US has Social Security and many other socialist programs and the judiciary is the teeth of the system. The RIAA is casting such a big drag net, that they are bound to snare many cases that deserve sympathy, which then weakens their overall strategy. So it makes sense for lawyers to use these cases to hit back at the RIAA since they have a better chance of winning.
A wave of full screen ads will certainly increase the Firefox browser market share really quickly and will basically mean the end of Flash as an internet medium since everybody and their dog will block it completely.
Copyright would be the lamest excuse. Writing down one number from a whole friggen book s obviously fair use. Even worse, since the ISBN numbers are allocated by the national library. So this is a really, really 'duh' case.
Exactly. It is a falacy to think that a whitelist is less trouble than a blacklist. At the rate that MS machines get screwed up, the whitelist will never be up to date and being a 'good' list, a wrong entry in a whitelist is much more damaging than a wrong entry in a blacklist.
Sniff... Darl only sued IBM and Novel and afew others. You guys are just jealous of him and his superior UNIX business! Sniff... Leave him alone! A few years ago he had a flourishing little software company and then you guys ruined him! Waah! Sniff... Leave him alone, or you'll have to deal with ME!!!
Yup, I think everyone that was trying to do Linux consulting work during the past few years must feel some resentment towards SCO. It is impossible to judge how much they hurt the growth of Linux in the corporate environment.
In my experience, when the accountants pack up their stuff, then you should trample them on the way out, cause you are likely not going to get paid for that month - Better to start your job search early than wait for the bouncing salary cheque...
OK, s'pose you are living in a town on a small lot and you have two neighbours that just moved in from the countryside and they insist on chatting politics while leaning on the fence facing each other accross your property (You see that in small towns!) Are you responsible for their hate speech?

How do deal with all those explosions in your car engine?
No, not really, they just gave up on the little "n't" bit.

So now Americans have to PAY in order to NOT receive an UNWANTED service.
If ever there ever was a business model that is sure to be profitable, this one is a winner.

I think a combo of asbestos undies and tin-foil raincoat may help, but it is bound to be a rather hot garb in Iraq...

A blacklist fails safe.
A whitelist fails with tragic consequences.
It's OK, in typical USB standards fashion, it won't work properly for the first 5 years, so you have until (at least) 2015 to buy a new printer.
It is a wonder you could hear it, since it must have been very muffled by the dust bunnies...

With apologies to the weird Yootoob Guy...
The picture show swampy ground (tundra?), so it could well have caused some methane to be released.
Nope, you are confusing authentication with stream encryption. One can even configure SSH to use Kerberos authentication!
MS Active Directory uses it, so it is everyflippenwhere - hundreds of millions of machines use it.

...so the one guy that got fired *must* have been responsible for the whole sorry mess...
Hmm, SCO stock is worth almost as much as an expired lottery ticket.
as proven by the court and who the hell wants a bunch of 2nd hand SCO servers?

Hmm, so 'fair use' applies to the RIAA, but apparently not to anyone else...
Hmm, Theo's Afrikaner hot-headedness should be excused - it is in his genes - he can't help it...
I remember overhead projectors with scrolls. One could scribble away on a continuous roll of plastic instead of making separate slides.

Yup, the Nazis are very close to the surface in Germany. They are a real and continuous threat. Hitler actually won his elections...
