| 02:36.06 | Hanuman | welcome back everyone |

| 04:42.25 | bonez39 | so...does being on the list here...endanger us? I was reading an article in Network World about Mr. McBride...and how very soon they are going to go after end users....of linux.. |
| 04:45.05 | jakea | wait, I thought they were not going after the end user |
| 04:45.28 | jakea | someone has it on tape |
| 04:45.30 | jakea | ;) |
| 04:46.12 | bonez39 | well, that's what the article said...eventually, imagine...$1600 bucks per CPU..times however many CPU's are running linux..woah...could pay off the national debt with that kind of money.....eh? |
| 04:46.25 | bonez39 | that's how much they want in licensing fees.... |
| 04:52.48 | brailsmt | of course you are jumping a few years into the future... and making the assumption SCO will win its cases... |
| 04:53.38 | brailsmt | which is not exactly a great assumption to make until SCO shows its hand |
| 04:57.02 | bonez39 | oh, but SCO says it has shown its hand..I received an email back a few weeks ago from someone at SCO...(can dig it up if interested) telling how compelling their case is..and how they have shown it all..but I don't believe that.. |
| 04:58.35 | bonez39 | on another front..where would I start looking to find a replacement for my laptop screen, which is cracked...? it got warped in the summer in Phoenix and has a large flaw in the screen now..it's from PCLaptops..they want to charge me $400 bucks to replace the screen..still paying on the machine....which isn't even worth the screen replacement...now...from wear and tear and time |
| 05:03.18 | brailsmt | well, if SCO has shown its hand already, then there is no need to worry about paying anything to anyone... |
| 05:03.20 | bonez39 | I keep fantasizing about finding some friend with a link to the manufacturer...and somehow finding a fresh replacement..that I could install myself..but I know I am dreaming .. |

| 05:27.54 | bonez39 | hi tensai |
| 05:57.25 | tensai | bonez39: good evening |
| 05:58.28 | bonez39 | ah...hi |
| 06:23.40 | *** join/#utah hans (~fugalh@128.187.244.3) |
| 06:26.46 | bonez39 | hi hans |
| 06:29.16 | bonez39 | if I find a shockwafe flash player..for mozilla...will installing it also enable shockwave playback in konqueror? |
| 06:30.05 | jakea | bonez39: you think anyone at SCO you are talking to is going to send an email through their system saying they have no chance on winning their case and have their job the next morning> |
| 06:30.26 | jakea | and no, it' won't enable it on Konq |
| 06:30.41 | jakea | heck, I'm having issues getting it to work in Mandrake 9.2 |
| 06:31.50 | bonez39 | jakea: "saying they have no chance on winning"???? I didn't say that..I said they were saying they will win...refuting the doubts I had shared with them. |
| 06:32.14 | jakea | that is my point, you think someone there is going to say they have no chance? |
| 06:33.00 | jakea | it's like the manger of the Jazz saying "We have no chance in winning tonight game, we are just going to go out there and get creamed tonight by the Nuggests" |
| 06:35.25 | bonez39 | no, I don't think that at all.... |
| 06:35.49 | bonez39 | yeah, of course I expect they would write with the boldest confidence about their position |
| 06:36.39 | jakea | message from bob@sco.com: Man, our case is hopeless |
| 06:37.03 | jakea | <over speakers> Bob, Darl would like to see you in his office... |
| 06:37.11 | jakea | ;) |
| 06:43.02 | jakea | you don't want to sue IBM |
