A...Wouldn`t even make me blink, MS have tried this kind of thing before, just because the Halloween documents where leaked/denied/put down to overenthusiasm doesn`t mean that MS has forgotten the ideas behind them

B...First time I heard about SCO`s dodgey claims I thought just what you posted,(ie: who`s paying the bills...Bill?), I would also point out that Linux being open source it would be somewhat hard to hide the origins of anything, especialy when you have the source code to look at

C...Are SCO back online yet ? ,I hear they had problems with their server or something ROFL

I wouldn't be surprised by this.

What I would be surprised and even a little shock...if Microsoft outbids Comcast for Disney.
