I consider this to be a legitimate news story dealing with the SCO v Linux controversy and would appreciate it staying in the main forum. Thank you.

Only when the courts rule in favor of SCO will I give them a dime. Until then they can kiss my rear.

Linux reseller Gary Sandine, chief technology officer at Los Alamos Computers, in Los Alamos, N.M., which owns and ships many GNU Linux computers, said that despite numerous calls to SCO, he has been unable to talk directly to a salesperson.

Why would he want to talk with SCO?

I wish I knew who coined this wonderful phrase:

You can't spell fiasco without SCO!

OBTW, there was an article on GROKLAW yesterday about someone in Ireland trying to inquire about Linux run-time licenses from $CO. Also here is the guy's blog.

It would seem reasonable to inquire exactly what is being licensed. Exactly what code is covered?
