Sun's 'Acquisition' of NOVL -- Attempt to Derail


All this talk about Sun acquiring NOVL is bullshit.

It's an attempt to defuse Suse -- the best distro ever bar none.

Jonathan Schwartz is a panty-waist fancy boy who can't dream up a product or
code worth shit and he can't fill the shoes of Bill Joy, so he concocts
fantasy crapola to bother and annoy people.

I'm sure that Jon's M$ buddies are patting him on the back for that bit of
F.U.D.

Steve Ballmer welcomes Jonathan Schwartz to the Corporate Troll club of
people who have high positions and nothing but too much time on their hands
so they bother the people who do the real work.

So you think it isn't going to happen, eh?

I would rather it not. My first experience in *nix outside the
university (which was all VAX) was on a Sparc 5 - terrible machine,
IMO. I remember using Xerox Scanworx and some odd programs by Sun to
do word processing.
