Why? Certainly not because any of it would be 'useful', but to see how much they have illegally rolled into their kernel. You know, stuff like GPL code, 3rd party stuff, etc... Given their record for taking without asking I believe that we might find several items of interest. As for not careing anymore, that is in reference to code that was stolen/incorporated so long ago it would only be of interest to those small companies that were destroyed by the expropriation, the GO Corp, for example.
