  13. Wouldn't it be vunderbar if all the people who actually have to USE
  14. UNIX, would take the fee they would normally pay to buy UNIX and
  15. instead put it toward the formation of a single company who was
  16. owned by all involved whose job it was to write a network software
  17. for everyone? That would mean uniformity of coding, responsivness to
  18. customers, and low prices across the board and we wouldn't have to
  19. deal with the death star and the borg (AT&T and Novell) (BTW who
  20. originally came up with those names? They are perfect!).

  22. Sorry.. just dreaming again.
