Ah but they have a world beating compiler to go with that - Visual
Basic. :-> As far as I remember, the Santa Cruz Operation is still owned
by M$. I think that they engaged in a similar give away a few years ago
when Linux began to pick up steam and the latest NT releases started
falling over more rapidly. Chris Bidmead covered it in PCW so the
articles may be on the VNU/PCW site. All that you got after installing
it was as an X-window desktop, a few xterms and f*all in the way of any
applications. I had some friends in college who did SCO and they were
never the same again. :-)
SCO - Just Say No!
