Caldera pulled the head off of 3 of my largest customers and shit down 
thier neck.... I agree with you. I will not participate or recommend 
*ANYTHING* that company is involved
with. We were a Caldera business partner for about 4 years and 
throughout our relationship
with them, I cannot recall *ONE* single instance where they came through 
as per spec.
