| 625543 | 2007-12-29 06:09:00 | "Is the open-source community stealing ideas from commercial vendors? IP Innovations seems to think so; the patent-holding company recently filed a lawsuit for patent infringement against Linux distributors Red Hat and Novell, claiming that Linux uses ideas originally developed at the Xerox PARC laboratory." Wonder if they will go after Apple and Microsoft next?? |

| 625545 | 2007-12-29 07:43:00 | Uses the same modus operandi as SCO did . The crunch came when the plaintiffs had to stump up with the evidence - SCO had none, so tried stalling and dithering Linux users to death . We all know how that went . |

| 625546 | 2007-12-29 09:41:00 | The Micro$oft buck is like the same Big Blue buck that destroyed Commodore and Atari too. But Atari is still alive... unless they are all zombies back from the dead. |

| 625547 | 2007-12-29 13:04:00 | So is Commodore officially. But don't expect the Amiga 6000 or Atari Super-ST to come out any time soon :) | sprinkles (11943) | ||
| 625548 | 2007-12-29 13:40:00 | Look at SCO, The SCO Group has been removed from the Nasdaq Stock Market because the company declared bankruptcy in September, not long after they tried to take on Linux...

THEN it might be time to get worried. In the mean time, its just spreading FUD needlessly IMO! |
