There president > can't even keep his pants on. But that's marketing for you! I agree. MPX isn't worth running SCO. I've seen several installations with more than 100 users running ESIX SVR4. Very fast -- with happy campers based on real standards as defined in SVR4 -- not standards designed in Santa Cruz to change an intended OS into something it wasn't designed to be (and compliers that run "out of the box" on the majority of software circulating out there on the net). I wonder what kind of personal assets the stepped down president of SCO has available for taking -- as well as corporate assets for tolerating this type of behavior.. Actually with todays activity on this subject, it is just plain STUPID for SCO to tolerate this sort of activity from ANYONE, let alone the president. -- Larry Snyder internet: larry@gator.use.com keeper of the Gator uucp: uunet!gator!larry
