SCO Files Suit Against Novell Over System V Ownership

nadamsieee writes "Yahoo! Finance is carrying a press release from SCO that details a new lawsuit against Novell for "Slander of Title". It looks like SCO has finally ditched their failing product line in favor of 24/7 litigation and PR work." To recap: Novell and SCO have a lengthy correspondence over the meaning of the contract between the two companies, Novell registers a claim with the U.S. copyright office over the code in dispute, SCO files this suit in response. Update: 01/20 23:04 GMT by M : SCO has placed their complaint (pdf) online.

    How can anyone really feel good about working for these guys? Granted, jobs in IT are harder to come by as of late, but I would be absolutely embarrassed to say "I work for SCO".......

    Sorry, but I work for SCO and I don't feel bad about it. And I'm not embarrassed to admit it. And I think all this bad press about this lawsuit is unfair: IBM did never own Unix but they stated goal was to kill Unix by pushing Linux. I don't have negative feelings against the Linux community but we can't let IBM get away with this. Indeed Darl is just doing his job and definding SCO against this unfair method to put us out of business.
