They've been telling the world that they were going to do that for months
now .. guess they finally did it ..

But since they told everyone they were exiting the hardware market, I
don't think that qualifies as '... on the Sly'

So?  Not as bad as Enron.  Times are getting tight for
everyone.
Boeing lays off workers by the thousands.  Ford lay offs.
General Motors lay offs.
Why?  Who knows.
And besides its an old story.
 
 
 

1. VA Linux to sell proprietary software

What, pay for software that actually works?  No problem here, especially
after a day using QuarkExpress running under WindowsME.....which needs to
be re-booted every four hours because the fonts all suddenly
disappear....yes, the programming prowess of MS really shines through.

You are under the mistaken impression that everyone uses linux because it
is free......the free part is just an extra bonus....I've payed for distros
in the past and will pay for them in the future....
