	I don't know, why do you?  This seems like a good way for Caldera
to make money, and it's no different from what other companies (such as
sendmail) are doing.  All of these Linux companies *have* to find a way to
make money, especially with the NASDAQ being the way it is.  If I was
running a big Linux shop, this software might make sense.  I think we're
going to see a lot more of this from the smaller Linux companies, as they
suddenly realize that investment money is going to be a LOT harder to come
by in the future.  <shrug>  If you don't like it, use Debian...
