DaimlerChrysler Looks for Dismissal of SCO Suit

Ian Atkins writes "DaimlerChrysler has told SCO where it can stick its lawsuit. In a filing in Michigan, the car company has said not only does it not have to give SCO the information it asked for, but that it hasn't used the software SCO claims rights over - for seven years. It has asked the judge to throw the whole thing out of court. Another bad for SCO and its MS-backed Linux crusade it would seem. Full details on Techworld here." Reader Eggplant62 notes that Groklaw is also covering the story, and noting that SCO has dropped their claim that the GPL is unconstitutional.

    Not having used SCO Unix for seven years isn't really an obscure point, is it?

    True. What's really sad is it seems SCO is sueing all their old customers. At least the ones who are running Linux currently. No wonder their latest filing shows they have hardly any income. Who would want to do business with a company like this?
