"borrowing"  this from the  pplug list -
thought others might be interested.

"Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux
operating system, this week responded to a range
of allegations made by The SCO Group at its  SCO
Forum 2003  conference in Las Vegas. In a
hard-hitting interview with eWEEK Senior Editor
Peter Galli, Torvalds disputed what SCO presented
this week as evidence of illegal Unix System V
code in Linux."

"newsmakers      Sterling Ball, a jovial,
plain-talking businessman, is CEO of Ernie Ball,
the world's leading maker of premium guitar
strings endorsed by generations of artists
ranging from the likes of Eric Clapton to the
dudes from Metallica.

"But since jettisoning all of Microsoft products
three years ago, Ernie Ball has also gained
notoriety as a company that dumped most of its
proprietary software--and still lived to tell the
tale."
