SCO Follies continue
I never liked Ayn Rand's writing and I was never able to finish Atlas Shrugged. But it occurs to me that Darl McBride is exactly the kind of pseudo-capitalist that Rand railed against. She had a word that she lumped people like Darl under:

Looter

It's hard to say what Rand would have made of Open Source software. But if you think carefully about it, you'll come to the conclusion that Open Source is an engine of creativity and innovation that adds considerable value to many - and perhaps eventually most or all - of our industries and enterprises. Just ask IBM. They're even willing to pay for Super Bowl ads to promote it.

You might even draw the conclusion that Linus Torvalds has a little in common with John Galt.

The other conclusion you might draw is that IBM doesn't seem very worried about being sued by SCO.

Update: I originally wrote this on 1/26, but hadn't gotten around to publishing it. But SCO's latest bit of nonsense led me to finish it. The best source of what's going on with the SCO-IBM case is, as always, Groklaw.
