Cheer up Bob. This will take a little time to unfold. We should use this as a really good example of why RMS is right. Software and software rights should not be left in the hands of those like SCO. The 1500 CEO's who got the letter, hopefully , should be wondering what this linux stuff is all about. I cannot see the likes of SCO shutting down linux operations worldwide. If SCO succeeds in limiting Linux in the USA it will place this Country at a serious disadvantage when the rest of the world can use it. For now, carry on as usual and treat SCO with the disdain they deserve. regards Phil Wilshire tanner at real-time.com wrote: > > Killing Linux > http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,1115156,00.asp > > So, I read this article.
