NY Times Reveals SCO/Canopy Group Hypocrisy
rjamestaylor writes "The New York Times reports that 'SCO, the company that touched off a computer industry slugfest last spring by suing I.B.M. over its use of Unix software, may find itself embarrassed by a similar claim against a company once related to SCO.' Note that the reporter, John Markoff, ties together Noorda's Canopy Group companies, revealing that: 'Canopy is now SCO's largest shareholder, with two seats on the company's board, and has played an important role, analysts say, in shaping SCO's legal strategy.' He even quotes SCOSource shill Laura Didio as saying, 'All roads lead to Canopy...'"
Mr. Yarro said: "I know I've been painted in a rough light. I hope that our companies are our legacy and not our lawsuits."
You bet. After a while, nobody will remember Canopy from anything else than their lawsuits. And I also hope that Yarro and friends have a nice little cell in their PMITA prison, preferably with a hugely popular LUG consisting mainly of ethnic guys who work out a lot.
Damn, the whole SCO management could make an entertaining episode of Oz.

SEC will be looking into this soon. The girliest screem on the roller-coaster as it goes down will be Darl...
All roads do not lead to canopy. Yours leads to a federal-pound-me-in-the-ass-prison.
When will SCO sue themselves?
Why would anyone care about this stupid server OS? It clearly will never make it onto the desktop in any significant numbers, so who cares except for a few nasty multinational corporations and a few Unix-loving geeks.
Because we all know whoever makes it to the storied and fabled desktop awaits untold riches and power beyond your wildest belief.
... and furthermore
How about specifying the violations so they can be corrected in all Linux distributions?
SCO's IP in Linux is about as elusive as Iraq's WMD.
