It's amazing how much a few billions can back your credibility...

Remember that lawsuit SCO did against IBM for proprietary code?

It just got backed by Microsoft. :frowning:

<img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> I don’t know wether to feel sad for Linux users and the lack of a competitor for windows, or glad since this might mean an end to the Linux threads… tough call.

I’ve already found alternatives to pimp, so Open Source threads will continue. Be sad. :o

Interesting. When Microsoft is sued for monopoly, almost nothing happens. Hey, they generate taxes. But Linux doesn’t, so let’s label linux users ‘unix code thieves’ and get some $$$ from them.

So suppose this thing ends up in a really bad way. They’ll just be creating a huge wave of OS piracy. It’s funny to think that a legal Linux user might be a pirate tomorrow just for not having paid SCOS rights when he installed his system.
