SCO/Caldera has been in financial trouble for a while. They thought they could muscle IBM into buying them out and get a nice fat retirement for themselves. IBM called their bluff. Now they are trying every trick in the book to keep their stock high so they can sell and get out before thier bubble pops. Unfortunatly, this is at the expense of the Unix/Linux community. Now that Novell has bought SUSE and received copyrights for Unix source of their own, it will get even more interesting. Sincerly, Robert J. King .... You can pull by Linux from my cold dead fingers. --- MultiMail/Linux v0.45 * Origin: FidoTel & QWK on the Web! www.fidotel.com (1:275/311) .
