I refer to SCO's redacted whinge - 724-the-mothership, not
724-A-the-shuttlecraft. Bottom of page 44. Footnote 12.

I take it that "hair restorer" is a Very Silly Nickname for a Very Silly
Bugfix of doing four writes to some gun-totin' register. If so, SCO is
now actually claiming, get this, IBM's Sekrit Knowlege of i386 APIC bugs.

*boggle*

Anyone know any more about this?

So the reference to "hair restorer" backreferences to "tearing my hair out".

Incredibly, even though our messages crossed, I'd missed that detail -- thanks!
