Hi all, This is my first posting to this mailing list. If you haven't already seen this propaganda check it out. An example of a high profile company adopting the Linux child. (FreeBSD may require a bit of public relations work to make it more attractive for those adopters) Check it out: http://www.hp.com/pressrel/jun99/21jun99g.htm This might give people a little bit of a laugh. Here is SCO (the Serious Commercial Organisation of the free software rip-offs merchants) Saying they are adding Linux compatibility.... well, well... could not be bothered doing their own thing anymore with free software source and decided to do some alignment with free software developers, and OS's so it wil make their product more attractive. But why Linux and not FreeBSD also? Well FreeBSD is compatiable with SCO (after they patched the OS to be compatiable with themselves ;) * SLS oss472a: Binary Misrecognition Patch ) They should atleast reciprocate!!! (very brief) http://www.sco.com/press/releases/1999/6849.html Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
