Royal Bank of Canada Cashes Out of SCO; SCO Begins Layoffs
jbell99999 is the first one to submit news that the Royal Bank of Canada is divesting itself of SCO stock. They're selling part of their preferred stock to Baystar, which has already indicated that they want to redeem their shares, and converting the rest to regular stock, which they can presumably sell on the open market. In other SCO news, Versicherung writes "The Santa Cruz Sentinel is reporting, SCO is laying off 10 percent of its worldwide workforce. The cuts come less than a month after the company brought on a new chief financial officer and just before the company ended its second fiscal quarter April 30."

That's why I always follow the rule that says if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Anyone who invests in the stock market should keep this in mind before they throw money at companies like SCO and BreX.
Yikes... spell-check your sig, dear friend.
Way off-topic, but eh...
You are in error. No-one is screaming. Thank you for your cooperation.
Yes, I misspelled one word in there. So be it, just more to the point of what I was saying. We are no better then the rest of the planet, spelling errors included.
For this monstrous calamity of an offense, I trust that my trial on charges of treason to the sacred cow of national superiority will be short and execution swift and merciful.
Don't you mean "truly fearsome Paladins"?
Kill, Tux, kill!
Is that a sword or a toilet plunger you are holding, Sir Knight? Herr Knight?
How does one address a spelling Nazi exactly?
FOR ME TO POOP ON!
Your hair look like poop, Bob! - Wanker.
