I am now My, that's awfully cynical of you! I dunno, but before I'd allow myself to get worried about something like this I'd have to first feel that the company in question (SCO) had something of a track record for screwing up previous releases of UNIX. I mean, SCO has long been a leader in the UNIX market, bringing us ground-breaking products like ODT 2.0 and 3.0, then there were their efforts to bring POSIX and X/Open compliance to the header files, and on top of that you've got their long-standing, stalwart support of SVR3 even after many said that it was a dead code base. They even had the courage to unbundle their compilers long before anyone else did. Gee, what ever are you worried about? :-) Jordan
