Found a clip about it 2nd page of the new Network World last night. Even has a
slice of pizza picture to catch your attention. Boy, America get's off on the
weirdest things. If only I could come up with something that trivial and have
it go National. You just never know, do you?

Right, but I just got a press release from SCO on my desk this morning (paper,
note), which claims that "Pizza Hut launched the PizzaNet pilot in the Santa
Cruz are and are using it to study the feasibility of expanding the programme
to other cities in the US and around the world."
The press release goes on to talk about SCO Global Access product which
incorporates Mosaic and "custom PizzaNet software."
Is anybody here involved in this?
