Free evaluation is hardly a threat. "SCO today announced plans to provide a free license to use its popular UNIX systems, including SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare, to anyone in the world who wants to use them for educational and non-commercial use to enable the evaluation and understanding of UNIX systems." Hmmmmm. I don't even think that could qualify as a threat to Linux let alone Microsoft. The rest of "Unix Unbound" reads like an overpriced, underexperienced marketeer wetdream filled with empowering bold moves, 20 years of this and 60 billion of that. The comparison with AT&T's similar move 25 years ago is essential market-speak. Any student of posturing should study this. At 08:05 AM 8/28/96 -0400, you wrote:
