Fighting the good fight
SCO is correct to vigorously defend this IP issue. Linux is a scourge on the face of computing. It has destroyed the lives of millions of IT workers, leading to jobs going offshore. I just thank my lucky stars that I have bet the ranch on Microsoft's .NET platform. Our ISA Servers are out there, defending our network from Linux viruses and trojans.

Confusing  orlando@... | 01/14/04
Sorry, you are wrong.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
That is just IBM..  Patrick Jones | 01/14/04
True, but...  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Third Party  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
Huh?  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
No they do not  NemesisNL | 01/14/04
I've seen no court ruling to support that claim.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
burdon of proof  ryusen | 01/14/04
Burden of proof is half right.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04

re: Confusing  Iain_Peters | 01/14/04
The might not like our courts  NemesisNL | 01/14/04
Unless SCO is right.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Maybe  Patrick Jones | 01/14/04
Again, its NOT the code.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Isn't that what the Linux billing is about?  doctormoriarty | 01/14/04
That's where it gets very murky.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
IBM suit is not about code  sinkme | 01/14/04
You are arguing 2 different things...  Patrick Jones | 01/14/04
Sort of, maybe, and who knows...  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
So the users have no concern  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
Unless the courts rule...  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
What IP?  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
But technically it is the code  voska | 01/14/04
"Methods and Concepts"  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
NO, the code has little if anything to do with it.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Yagotta, its called a contract.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Yes, it's a contract  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
Let me clear the IBM thing up  slopoke | 01/14/04
Slowpoke, sorry but you are wrong.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
That's still code  voska | 01/14/04
Voska, no it's not code.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
it is in the code  rgriffith64@... | 01/14/04
Right about what?  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
Have you a cite?  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Dec. 5th hearing  dscherf | 01/14/04
Thanks, I'll look it over.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Possibility? Balderdash.  John Le'Brecage | 01/14/04
Sorry, you are wrong.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
"...always a possibility." ? Yeah, right, between ZERO & NIL.  dicktaurus@... | 01/14/04
Even *IF* SCO is right...  Robert Crocker | 01/14/04
exactly  JWatson77 | 01/15/04
more likely  ryusen | 01/14/04
Possibility  NoB$ | 01/14/04
Forced you into the gutter again I see.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
don't you think...  ryusen | 01/15/04
Unless SCO is right  NemesisNL | 01/14/04
Confusing? Not really.  Eggs Ackley_z | 01/14/04
Confusing, maybe, but a good strategy  JJ_z | 01/14/04
No, JJ  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
So I'm a fence  NemesisNL | 01/14/04
Confusing, maybe, but a good strategy  JJ_z | 01/14/04
It's all very clear  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
It's so clear it's costing millions.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Exactly!!!!!  NemesisNL | 01/14/04
Even slam-dunk defenses cost money, Don  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
Point being, it's not "clear" or simple.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 01/14/04
Quirk!  Yagotta B. Kidding | 01/14/04
