Darl McBride Interview

Posted by michael on from the yap-yap-yap-yap dept.

mpsmps writes "vnunet.com has a long interview with SCO CEO Darl McBride devoted entirely to the SCO/IBM suit. McBride radiates confidence, describing SCO's contracts as "bullet-proof." He says he thinks IBM is desperate to buy SCO because "the last thing [IBM wants] to hear is the testimony that is going to come out," but that SCO isn't interested in being acquired. Read the interview for much more on these and other topics." See also part 2 and part 3 of the interview.

    "One thing I find really annoying about this case is that the Open Source community hasn't been able to point to a bit of code and say, look, there's the problem. Or alternatively, we've looked, and there is no problem. I mean, how hard can that be?"

    ... despite all the sound and fury coming out of Utah, SCO hasn't released any of the offending bits yet. They are afraid the Linux community will wipe the fingerprints off their smoking gun.

    "I seriously believe that this man was so out of his tree that even as he faked documents, he actually believed he was reproducing something that "really" existed in the perfect world he lived in."

    I'm sure the WMDs will turn up eventually.
