The new business plan of SCO is already facing rejection in advance - "A trustee in bankruptcy will only be appointed if the company owners are unable to carry out the reorganization or final bankruptcy due to fraud, age, or proven business incompetence." - fits SCO well. Okay, they are not that old yet, but the rest ...

Magenta
Magenta
At the top, the #ED008C Magenta used by engadget. On the right, the RAL 4010 used by Telekom with the web code #E20074. At the bottom, the Magenta sometimes referred to as RAL 4010 with #BF1773, and on the left, the also used #C03F7D specification (e.g., Wikipedia). And now there is a dispute about this. According to www.telekom-cg.de, the specification RAL 4010 with "telemagenta" and the implementation on RGB with #E20074 is registered.
Pydev - Eclipse plugin for Python development. Since I sometimes look at Eclipse for other things and it's no longer terribly slow, this might also become interesting at some point. Although TextWrangler is still unbeatable in comparison in terms of speed.
Pydev Extensions - shareware extension of the Eclipse plugin for Python. Has some interesting features.
ral 4010 bf1773 - Google Search - much more usage, but also not the specification chosen by Deutsche Telekom itself.
ral 4010 C03F7D - Google Search - not many results, I guess they all copied from each other and someone got it from a (poorly designed) Telekom page at some point.
Telekom Farbverwendung - PDF on telekom-cg.com which lists the Telekom color definitions. I only found it there, it looks official. Interesting is the sentence about where the web color comes from: "The hexadecimal value (www) conforms to the global norm and is taken from the 'Websafe Color Library'" - it sounds more like it was selected after visual inspection and is closest to RAL 4010 (which is ultimately a color tone specification rather for print or coating) (sRGB is not that big).
The Diaries of John Quincy Adams: A Digital Collection - a posthumous blogger, so to speak ...
Thompson Rivers University Owlcam - yes, an owl camera. A Bubo Virginianus nest, to be precise.
Towers of Hanoi - written only with VIM commands (yes, if you paste VIM commands into a buffer and execute them again, you get something like a - very strange - programming language, based on visual text modification. And yes, someone had too much free time)
