I'm kinda for coverage on the local level of SCO since Chrysler is right 
down the street from me and some of the court stuff is local too.

I think some of us have posted comments on Slashdot as well. The 
statment that "all the major slashdot stories seem to get rehashed here" 
might be a bit over the top, and well even if they are, at least there 
is a local perspective and something I can chat with fellow MDLUGers 
when I run in to them.

I'm also for any news on Ralsky, anytime, anywhere.

Its better than Microsoft bashing....too easy a target these days....

But I would agree, simply posting a link to slashdot without some 
insight is probably not worth the post.

I, for one, came here right after reading slashdot and was a little 
bummed there wasn't a bunch of chatter over this milestone for SCO.
