Dear Darl McBride

About "Linux Migration Incentives Planned by SCO" -

A proprietary Operating System? Of course, I've always had a hankering for Big Iron.

Yes, now you come to think of it, Linux really isn't all that good - not when you consider the alternatives.

I think a cluster of Z990s with z/VM with a source code license, with source code licensed z/OS and VSE/ESA running as guests, would be fine, just fine.

And of course, I was forgetting, a 32-cpu Alpha running OpenVMS for the terminal.

I mean, I have to have a serious games machine, don't I? Everybody'll laugh at me if I don't. And that takes serious IO , to control all the remote control aircraft and spacecraft and robots that one needs to b>play DOOM in a totally satisfactory and convincing manner ; and once again, thanks for offering.

Linux'd never fit the bill, would it?

And once again, thanks for the offer, and I take it that once having declared my intentions to take up your offer in good faith, you cannot now refuse to carry it out. And I gave my full postal address when I applied for the Free Unix Licenses, so you don't have any excuses, do you now?

I've never owned a mainframe before - and I owe it all to SCO!
