SCO Wants to License Europe

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the dreaming-big dept.

MacEnvy writes "It looks like SCO isn't letting up - they've decided to expand their war on Linux to other countries. According to Internet Week, the company will be offering its Intellectual Property License in the UK and other European countries starting February 1.

  1. Scottish law: When McDonald's sued McDonald by MichaelCrawford · · Score: 1, Offtopic
    My father, proud of his scottish heritage (we're Crawfords, part of Clan Lindsay) told me this story:

    The chieftan of Clan McDonald owns a restaurant named McDonald's, located somewhere in Scotland.

    When the American fast food chain of the same name sued him for trademark infringement, the chieftan threatened to forbid the fast food chain from doing business in Scotland.

    After checking with its attorneys, the fast food chain quickly dropped its case.
