Stupid question: Who the hell is Rob Enderle.

Or in other words, please, next time tell in the intro what it is about, or provide a tiny bit of background info. That makes it much easier to judge if the actual link goes to something interesting or not.

And no, "senior research fellow" apparently doesn't mean anything.

Industry tech writer who has historically taken the side of SCO. There's something like a feud between him and Groklaw. Not terribly relevant if you're not concerned about Groklaw or the IBM/SCO and Novell/SCO lawsuits.

Well, I did follow the SCO saga via Growlaw, but still had no clue who he was. I still don't see how he's relevant though, or do people really take him seriously? That'd be scary.

I saw an Enderle article here on LWN last year and wondered the same thing, so I poked around the web and wrote the Wikipedia article he's now so bitter about (I didn't contribute the "Fiona" factoid though).
