daihard Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 The article mentions Sun as another backer of the SCO attack on Linux. I didn't realize Sun was behind it. Does anyone have any information about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zox Posted August 25, 2003 Author Share Posted August 25, 2003 From my knowledge I beleieve that it is only mentioning of Sun due to their paymant of 100 Million bucks to SCO so far.They paid the bigiest money to SCO and they made sure everybody knows that.Even SCO said several times that the only company that they are not after is SUN because of huge money they gave them.I don't think SUN is against Linux any more since they are releasing "Mad Hatter", their own version of desktop Linux and they said they are commited to open source.If there is anything else than I missed it and I am not aware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quint Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 Once again, thanks for a great read, Zox. Seems that SCO is trying what a well-known group of people did for decades...receive "payments every month" for "protection". <_<P.S.: like the avatar, Zox - good one!

Guest LilBambi Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 SCO has been exhibiting typical Schizophrenia LOL!Maybe SCO needs to be protected from itself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeber Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 If anyone else is curious about Mad Hatter (as I was), here's a link from Sun with some screen shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
