Enterprise Unix Roundup: RIP Unix?  

,----[ Quote ]
| I think, however, Weiss missed the point that Unix and Linux development are 
| not necessarily mutually exclusive. This is especially true as flavors such 
| as Sun's Solaris get more Linux-like functionality and wrappers are added. 
| Compatibility problems are becoming increasingly moot as time goes on.

Another Fast One From SCO?

,----[ Quote ]
| In fact, SCO's cash actually increased by almost $2.4 million during that 
| period! SCO would now have us believe that they burned through almost $5 
| million in cash since April 30 in becoming insolvent. ON WHAT?! Of course, 
| given that we haven't had a chance to see their most recent quarterly report 
| (that was due on Friday when they filed the bankruptcy petition) or a 
| statement of assets and liabilities, it will be interesting to see how SCO 
| explains this dramatic reversal of fortune.

| "There you have it. At least a third of SCO's entire market
| capitalization, and their entire current cash reserves, is payoffs
| funnelled from Microsoft. Their 10Qs reveal that every other line of
| cash inflow is statistical noise by comparison. The brave new
| SCO source business model is now clear: sue your customers, shill
| for Microsoft, kite your stock, and pray you stay out of jail."
