Dr. B--I agree.  It seems then that Linux is a rip-off of Unix.
Perhaps we should switch to Unix rather than Linux?  Or is the switch
to Linux due to the fact it is free?  Free, and stolen.

Name one thing that's stolen, you imbecile!

See the complaint filed by SCO ("The SCO Group is targeting lawsuits
at auto parts retailer AutoZone and .... SCO threatened in November to
sue Linux users"). Though the lawsuit was dismissed on a
technicality, some of the points made were no doubt true.

ROTFL!
EVERY SINGLE ITEM that sco showed to court claiming it was theirs was
debunked. Most of it was BSD. None of it was theirs. And now Novell are on
the way to proving that SCO never owned unix in the first place.

I repeat, name one thing that's stolen.

Repent...not too late...szsssszzzzzzssssszzzz

Tra-lala-lalaaaaaaa
You do realise that empty threats never converted anyone, Don't you?
