What I don't understand is that SuSE is named as one of the companies that stands to lose the most if IBM loses, but just a month or two ago SuSE, SCO and a couple other companies were combining efforts to make "UnitedLinux"! The title of that article is very accurate. They do seem to get whatever they want. If I was a big wig at Microsoft I would be trying to shut them down, not help them. I would be afraid that they'd come back and hurt me just for fun. On Wed, 18 Jun 2003, Joel Wickard wrote: > Here's an interesting article.
