Did anyone read the article on openunix 8? It was posted to slashdot
today.  They've built a complete linux distro, but using the SCO Kernel
instead of the Linux one.  Pretty neat really, according to the article,
it will actually run well on more than 4 processors, unlike Linux, and has
better File system support, with Veritas VFS.

Seems like if they can actually maintain binary compatibility with linux,
it could be a threat to Solaris, althought they're working on their own
'linux compatibility mode' too.

It never really occured to me to think of improving the scalability of
Linux by replacing the Kernel... does that make this GNU/SCO?
