They probably thought that IBM would also be a pushover.<BR/><BR/>Silly SCO... The last time IBM settled out of court it was after 10 years of dragging the suit through the court system. Perhaps they should have done some research first.<BR/><BR/>My question is this though, why is Microsoft so leary of court. Is it's licencing structure so weak that it's scared a court case will cause the whole house to fall? Is the biggest anti-piracy promoter itself a IP thief? It would be interesting to find out.<BR/><BR/>JN<BR/><A HREF="http://www.nishiyama.tzo.com/jweb/blog" REL="nofollow">www.nishiyama.tzo.com</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7207011.post-1120349561416272572005-07-02T17:12:00.000-07:002005-07-02T17:12:00.000-07:00Hold on!
