Whats up with that!
Another day, another scammer trying to profit from a gpl'd program. I like the part where he doesn't guarantee that the developers of SEQ will continue to support it.
That just plain sucks...
Filters for ShowEQ can now be found here. filters-5xx-06-20-05.tar.gz
ShowEQ file section is here. https://sourceforge.net/project/show...roup_id=10131#

not really against the GPL to sell a computer with GPL software on it. i believe he is required to provide the source code (or a link to where it can be obtained for free) but other than that, there is nothing technically wrong with this.
i think i clicked on the link a while ago, but can't remember anything about it... sure, its morally ... ummm, can't think of a good word so just "morally wrong". bastards :)
He/she is providing a service to those to lazy to do it for them selves. The GPL clearly states that someone can charge a resonable amount of money for the cost of packaging GPL software. Here instead of a CD they provide a whole computer.

maybe if this guy sells his shit, its time for me to augment my income! i could certainly use a few extra bucks a month, and there is NOTHING i like more than building up a computer, installing an os and getting it running...
either that or get a job as a systems builder or something :)
Hey Fry,
Looks like you might be in business, someone bought it buy it now..
haha
I see this getting really ugly the first time SEQ has a new cvs commit and a_linux_newbie_01 can't do his cvs update. How much is his shiny new EBay box worth then? Will the guy who sold the box support updates? My guess is a big NO.

Ofcourse, by selling it, he is really opening himself up to a Verant ass-whuppin...

"Oh yeah, and when you show up for your court date, please remember to bring the list of all the people you sold that EULA violating software to. Thanks a bunch." --Verant
Bah! HA! HA! HA!
Take a look at this!

He he he, so much for his selling the box already setup and configured to go!
ok thats really funny LMAO

Well, I especially like the part where he says anyone in the world could email him and request the script for setting up ShowEQ. So I email'd him...
Wonder if I'll recieve a Script free of charge or if I'll be ignored...
we'll soon find out..

I just wondered if he would really send it, and he did.
