SCOrched Earth

mm0mm writes "Just hours after we read Darl's open letter on copyrights, Groklaw has another breaking update on SCO up on their website. SCO's Reply Memorandum of Law in Support of its Motion to Compel Discovery is now available. (original document here) The memorandum requests court to order IBM, the defendant, to provide evidence and support their case against ....IBM. :D When I was young, it was the plaintiff who was responsible for preparing enough evidence to present to the court, but in Darl's world, with army of lawyers who will be given 20% of the proceeds from the settlement or of 'a sale of SCO during the pendancy of litigation', apparently rules are different." Lawrence Lessig has a great piece reviewing Darl's nonsensical letter.

    Actually now I think you guys are bunch of morons and religous zealots who dont know a god damn thing about law. This idiot that wrote that blog is just as clueless as the rest of you and contained so much religous fervor as many of you idiots proporte to know. At one point in time I agreed that IBM was innocent and that SCO was wrong but now, I just say screw you, I hope SCO wins. Get a life and learn the fucking law.
