SCO's claims Against Daimler-Chrysler Thrown Out
Zak3056 writes "According to eyewittness reports published on Groklaw, SCO has been all but thrown out of court in their suit against Daimler-Chrysler.
In a hearing that lasted 18 minutes with the judge ruling from the bench, all of SCO's claims, save that DCC failed to file their required certification with 30 days, were dismissed."
For a free car. It was all they really wanted anyway.
Why'd it take so long?
Sigs cause cancer.
And there was Much Rejoycing, Now lets all go out and buy a hemi.
Pwn'ed.
WANNAWIKI Wannawiki WannaWiki WANNAWIKI!
New yearly lows. Heck of a business plan
SCO thrown out of a Daimler-Chrysler? I see a faulty-door/locks-suit in the near future.
But SCO tried to file a TRO against the Circuit Court of Michigan. It appears the court uses Linux Servers, to handle all of the court dosument distribution. SCO claimed that a TRO was in order because the issuance of the Dismissal would result in irreperable harm. The Judge promptly dismissed the TRO in 2 minutes. The remaining 6 minutes were taken up with everybody in the courtroom ROTFLTAO.
Time for SCO to deploy that famous Iraqi spokeperson.
We have destroyed the Chrysler infidels and their heads now adorn pikes along all interstates leading into Utah.
In China, it takes only a week from accusation to execution, but here we let SCumO blather on for so long before crumbling slowly! Why can't we be more like ... oh, wait, nevermind.
Time to buy!
It's funny, you can see the zigzags in the downward slope -- people really are thinking that.
See SCO.
See SCO Tank
Tank, SCO tank!
SCO lawyers: The code was stolen from us
...

Daimler-Chrysler lawyers: Sir please look at exhibit A. It clearly shows...
SCO lawyers: Fsck you!
Daimler-Chrysler lawyers: Your honor the code is not...
SCO lawyers: STFU. You stole our code.
Daimler-Chrysler lawyers: Excuse me but...
SCO lawyers: I saw you steal it.
Daimler-Chrysler lawyers:
SCO lawyers: I have a video tape of it, but my dog ate it.
Daimler-Chrysler lawyers:
SCO lawyers: Show me the money. Show me the money!!!
Daimler-Chrysler lawyers:
SCO lawyers: (In LOTR voice) Your code is Mine!
In America, Daimler-Chrysler is pronounced "Daym-ler Cry-sler".
In Germany, however, the Chrysler is silent.

I wish this case was handled by someone like Judge Judy who would entertain all of us with her insulting tirade about how SCO has wasted everyone's time and money and how they should be ashamed of themselves.
Even better check out: http://ir.sco.com/calculator.cfm and see how a default investment in sco is doing ;)

As evidenced by the fact that they have stolen BSD code and BSD is dying
(it's funny...laugh)
But in the end, SCO's 2nd biggest mistake was fucking with the auto industry. They have great lawyers and know how to use them.......
As opposed to the incompetent, understaffed legal team at IBM?
(/chuckles inwardly)
I have no problem with your religion until you decide it's reason to deprive others of the truth.
Time required for /.ers to complete self-congratulation: 1/2 hour.
Time until SCO regains a semblence of dignity: one Eon.

SCO's tripod only has one leg left. There's a technical term for that.

A monopod?
I'd rather be sailing...
as SCOG shills and insiders desperately work to keep their SCOX shares viable...
I'm waiting for the desperate, WWF-style infighting to begin.
You know what I mean - when the SCO execs start battling it out to see who can make it out the door and to the SEC office first, in order to seek immunity by ratting out their criminal co-conspirators on the insider trading charges which will inevitably follow this fiaSCO,...
Should be better than BattleBots...
Oh NO! The Judge has been /.'d! What''s that? She's REVERSING her decision!!!!
Obviously there are mod points to burn since the most banal, redundant, sophomoric posts are being modded insightful. Can't wait for the meta-moderation.
As a matter of fact, DC were extremely prompt in their response to SCO, sending them well within 30 days the complete list of all the CPUs that they have running the relevant SCO software.
It was of course the empty list, but DC cannot be held to blame for SCO's failure to detect the arrival of this perfectly valid list at their premises.
which CPU's that the source code is stored on
they haven't used them for 7 years, if they still have them just pull the old CPUs out out of the old computers and hand them to SCO.
then laugh at them for thinking their source code was in the volital cache/registor memory of old machines.
- CPUs don't store much
- when the power is off CPUs don't store anything
- the CPU would only have fraqments of source code only if they where editing the source code while the computer was on
however as non-tech lawyers they probably don't know the differance between CPU and computer, just it adds a bit of humor if the Auto's lawyer would school the Tech's lawyer about tech.
Yes, but her brother's friend's sister's step-daughter's uncle's godfather's boyfriend's hairdresser's dogwalker's co-worker's dad has a potato chip that looks like Bill Clinton.
Voting them all out of office, now that's change I can believe in.
And to rub it in SCO's face Chrysler announced today it will be releasing their own Crossfire Linux available for free download at chrysler.com
Great idea! Let's give the scumsucking "IP"-terrorists our money. That'll show them!
Belief is the currency of delusion.
The thing that surprised me though looking at it was that it seemed that there was a sudden rally at the end of the day, allowing SCOX to close slightly up. The stock went down all day and then *suddenly* popped back up to where it started. This makes me think that someone bought a whole lot of shares.

Microsoft?

Dude, your whole analogy is bogus! You're comparing apples and oranges!
