trying to take IBM, Red Hat, Novell, and anyone who else who used
Linux was a great plan. Ha!

$200.” Or, go out of business; do not come back; please leave the
plumbing in the restrooms on your way out the door.

“But now what? Novell owns Unix. There’s still some good stuff
left in there that isn’t duplicated in Linux.”
