For the first time in several years, I'm not going to try the latest and 
greatest from what was Caldera, now SCO Group, and their new playmates. 
They essentially shit on their customers, laughed in their faces about 
it, and said "We don't care what you think". Now when they want to 
dangle a morsel in front of us and expect me to come back. Guess what? 
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. I just wonder if 
Connectiva, SuSE, and Turbolinux considered that the would lose 
customers because they partnered with someone who publicly insulted 
their user base, and inasmuch told them to pack sand? AFAIC, Caldera dug 
their own grave and pulled three others in with them. Sorry.
