More Criticism of SCO's Claims To UNIX
inc_x writes "GROKLAW has a
compelling analysis that shows that SCO's claims that it owns the UNIX operating system are not very truthful. The Open Group confirms this position: "Statements that SCO "owns the UNIX operating system" or has "licensed UNIX to XYZ", are clearly inaccurate and misleading." It seems that SCO finds it increasingly difficult to distinguish facts from fiction. Last week SCO claimed 'This IP battle is only one part of SCO's business and is an add-on component. The core of SCO's business is profitable,' not bothered by the fact that they had claimed the opposite in their SEC filing: 'If we do not receive SCOsource licensing revenue in future quarters and our revenue from the sale of our operating system platform products and services continues to decline, we will need to further reduce operating expenses in order to maintain profitability or generate positive cash flow.'"
Please allow a user option which toggles SCO stories, I really don't give a shit anymore! Stop posting this crap to the front page. Make a section for this; sco.slashdot.org

If we could just kill every third lawyer we could rid our culture of 99% of all the total bullshit that passes for justice and the "need" for all new laws. The only time you are safe is when congress is in recess and the only time you will hear the truth is when lawyers have their mouths shut.

It's a joke about lawyers sure it is. There are to many lawyers. Do your part.
