You're absolutely right.

I hope, though, that no one is letting this distract them from the environmental and national resource damage of the meat they're eating. Precious little of the cattle being eaten by Americans or Europeans is being fed on healthy, unirrigated grasslands.

And if their source code gets stolen by other companies, they can just go all SCO on their asses.

Yeah, just look how well THAT strategy is working out...

My basic phone line (required for DSL to "ride on", and used for the DirecTiVo) costs me $17/month. SBC certainly has an economy of scale advantage over Vonage.
