I was sure that when SCO fired anti-Linux zealot and CEO Darl McBride, that Edward Cahn, the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Court Trustee, would kill off SCO's IBM lawsuit as a waste of money for a company that's been bleeding red-ink for years. I was wrong. http://www.itworld.com/legal/82399/sco-thrashes#comments Legal Operating systems Opinion copyright Linux SCO Unix Mon, 26 Oct 2009 13:25:45 -0400 ITworld staff 82399 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/business/81541/sco-fires-ceo-mcbride-it-tries-emerge-bankruptcy Unix software vendor SCO, struggling through bankruptcy and a Unix copyright trial involving Novell, has fired President and CEO Darl McBride. http://www.itworld.com/business/81541/sco-fires-ceo-mcbride-it-tries-emerge-bankruptcy#comments Business Legal Operating systems Software News copyright Novell SCO Unix Mon, 19 Oct 2009 20:53:36 -0400 ITworld staff 81541 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/business/81222/ibm-boosts-earnings-estimate-revenue-drops Citing improved profit margins and a stabilizing IT spending environment, IBM revised its 2009 earnings estimates upward Thursday, even as the company's revenue dropped. http://www.itworld.com/business/81222/ibm-boosts-earnings-estimate-revenue-drops#comments Business Hardware News financial results IBM mainframe Unix Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:14:59 -0400 ITworld staff 81222 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/networking/79184/unix-40-hanging-despite-strong-linux-windows-challenges The middle-aged OS is not expected to die any time soon, just slowly fade away http://www.itworld.com/networking/79184/unix-40-hanging-despite-strong-linux-windows-challenges#comments Open Source Operating systems Feature Linux Unix Tue, 29 Sep 2009 12:23:32 -0400 ITworld staff 79184 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/78977/hp-upgrades-unix-platform-data-protection The Serviceguard high-availability software also is improved as HP boosts privacy and business continuity features. http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/78977/hp-upgrades-unix-platform-data-protection#comments Operating systems Security News HP Unix Sun, 27 Sep 2009 20:37:51 -0400 ITworld staff 78977 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/business/77347/oracle-breaks-silence-sun-plans-ad Oracle Corp. ended its silence Thursday on its post-merger plans for Sun Microsystems Inc.'s Unix systems in an advertisement aimed at Sun customers to keep them from leaving the Sparc and Solaris platforms. http://www.itworld.com/business/77347/oracle-breaks-silence-sun-plans-ad#comments Business Operating systems Server and data center News Oracle Solaris sparc Sun Unix Thu, 10 Sep 2009 21:06:29 -0400 ITworld staff 77347 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/69214/capture-output-certain-unix-commands A while back, I was trying to capture the output of the Unix command httpd -t to the clipboard. Typically, you do this in OS X by sending the command's output through the pbcopy command. But in this case, it wasn't working. After much investigation, what I learned is that some Unix commands, httpd -t included, don't send their output to the Terminal in the usual way. http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/69214/capture-output-certain-unix-commands#comments Operating systems Tip Mac OS X Unix Fri, 12 Jun 2009 13:37:13 -0400 ITworld staff 69214 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/development/69083/mono-visual-studio-announces-first-release Developers of the open source Mono Project, which enables Microsoft .Net applications to run on Linux, Unix, and the Macintosh, have released Mono Tools for Visual Studio to a limited number of developers. http://www.itworld.com/development/69083/mono-visual-studio-announces-first-release#comments Development Open Source News .Net Linux Mac Unix Wed, 10 Jun 2009 10:27:39 -0400 ITworld staff 69083 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/68805/unix-turns-40-past-present-and-future-revolutionary-os Forty years ago this summer, a programmer sat down and knocked out in one month what would become one of the most important pieces of software ever created. http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/68805/unix-turns-40-past-present-and-future-revolutionary-os#comments Operating systems Feature Unix Thu, 04 Jun 2009 10:16:36 -0400 ITworld staff 68805 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/operating-systems/68804/shoulders-giants-three-unix-movers-and-shakers As with most important technologies, it's the people who follow the pioneers who often make the difference between a fabulous lab prototype and a technology that really transforms the landscape.
