SCO's Biggest Investor Admits It Loves IP Lawsuits

Posted by timothy on from the and-even-baystar-isn't-happy-with-sco dept.

Roblimo writes "A Baystar Capital spokesperson has finally admitted, directly and on the record to NewsForge reporter Chris Preimesberger, that they believe SCO's only viable asset is the potential proceeds of lawsuits against Linux users and vendors. 'We're looking for the best return we can, and we think the focus should be on IP licensing (and enforcement),' said BayStar spokesman Bob McGrath."

      Dear David Boies

      On Behalf of SCO, I must ask you to cease and desist with your attempts to cease and desist others.

      Your cease and desist letters appear to have remarkable simularties with the proprietry and copyrighted cease and desist letters we produce.

      We are willing to reveal exact line numbers and phrases in common to any interested third parties under the terms of an NDA.

      If you do not cease, SCO will be forced to take legal action against you. To avoid all legal entanglements you may license our IP at a low price of $699 per single page cease and desist, or $1400 for double paged letters.

      Sincerly,

      Steve Kemp
