Linux piracy?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

This is starting to get interesting. Is there proprietary Unix code inside of Linux and are all Linux users pirates? On the face of it that seems somewhat ridiculous, but if it’s in the courts, anything’s possible. SCO hasn’t gone public with their evidence, so it’s hard to say for sure what’s going to happen. It should be fun to watch though. I mean any company that would knowingly compare themselves to the recording industry is just looking to get ridiculed online, isn’t it?

    A quick look back to the beginning of the archives shows me that come Oct. 8. this here weblog will be 4 years old. That’s a whole lot of posts and a whole lot of writing, but I’ve enjoyed doing it and think it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. More importantly,…
