On another note, I went live 24/7 on my machine at home with cable broadband. From plugging in the hardware to turning on the machine, the technician that watched said that it was easier than installing on a Windows box. I wouldn't know. I don't do Windows. -- BMO ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message Board user "boyle_m_owl" under the following license: License:  CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike v2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------

Message ID: 111100 Posted By: stats_for_all Posted On: 2004-03-16 13:39:00 Subject: Royce Tech under Water Recs: 29 I note from the Royce Technology Value Fund prospectus that their holdings in SCOX increased from 105 K to 430 K after June 30, 2003. As of 2/29/04, this fund still held the 430 K shares. This does not include the 1,600 K shares held on 12/31 as a Royce and Associates Institutional holdings. At least 325 K of the Royce Tech fund shares were purchased after June, and are now showing a loss. The overweight that Royce has in SCO is dragging this fund performance down. Jonathan Cohen, the analyst that touted SCO in August 2003 is the investment advisor to Royce. He may begin to dump these underperforming shares, which will increase the float and downward pressure on this stock. ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message

Would someone gently explain to me the references to "painters" and "painting". From the context I get what you're all talking about, I think. But what's a definition? Supply details/examples as you see fit. ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message Board user "infosecgroupie" under the following license: License:  CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike v2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------

My name is Bob, and I've been following this fiaSCO since it started, thanks in no small part to the efforts of PJ at Groklaw. I am totally amazed at what can be done when people band together for the common good. I am equally as amazed at how blindly others will follow the shills/corporate liars/spin doctors/pseudo-wannabe law hacks in bashing the previous group, if only because they are getting paid to do so. I have owned computers only since 1998, but I can safely say that I have spent my last dime on any Microsoft products. PERIOD. This may not mean much to Bill and his minions, but it means everything to me. As I dumped Comcast because of how it treated its customers, I am dumping Microsoft. I am still dual-booting into Windows XP and Mandrake 9.2 Linux, but this not for long! Now, I must admit, I do not own any stock of an

I have been a die hard linux advocate and user since slackware 3.0. I currently make a living with linux. Linux pays my house/car note, puts food on my table, supports 3 cats, 1 dog, and a wife. I thank God for linux every day. I say this just to let you know that I am not trolling - I am trying to wrap my mind around some of the legalities around the SCO/IBM case. Can someone attempt to give me some explanations in layman's terms of what I am asking? IBM had a contract with AT&T (SCO, whoever) to develop and sell AIX, which is derived from SysV. According to what SCO is saying, IBM can sell AIX, but not license source code to third parties and allow them to develop derivatives. Meanwhile IBM decides they like linux, so they start their AIX programmers who have had
