SCO Says They'll Sue A Linux User Tomorrow

Posted by timothy on from the good-cons-take-gusto dept.

Xenographic writes "InfoWorld is reporting that SCO intends to sue a Linux using company. Ordinarily, this would not be newsworthy, as they have not followed through on past threats. However, this time, they have given themselves a concrete deadline--tomorrow. While they claim that it will be one of the "top 1,000" companies, they apparently have yet to decide which company to actually sue. Perhaps they need more practice playing darts?"

    Considering that I'm both a 12 year old girl and a Linux user, this doesn't fare well for me.

    ... the courts unequivocally throw out their
    claims. They don't care if it's a fortune 1000
    company with deep pockets that they target,
    because SCO has virtually unlimited funds at
    their disposal.

    Remember SCO is a sock puppet, and that the
    puppeteer is a very rich and well-known company
    that has almost unlimited cash at their
    disposal.

    Bush would say:

    It's clearly stated who they will sue, right here, on this blank sheet of paper. You see it? Right there, with my military history. That's right.
