McBride Says No More Lawsuits From SCO

Posted by michael on from the you've-been-served dept.

thephotoman writes "Well, Darl McBride gave an interview to IDG News Services in which he said that SCO is not going to sue any more customers. They do bring up the issue of the SCOsource Linux licensing, and how much of a failure it has been. Instead, they plan to start marketing their flavor of Unix. However, as he's not dropping the current lawsuits, there's no good reason to believe him on this change in strategy."

    Note how Darl always uses the informal "guys" when referring to a group of people, such as:

    those guys talking about incorporating the Unix technology into Longhorn

    Are there not any woman that work at Microsoft?

    Re: your sig, "Id Software lost $2.75 million to record-breaking piracy on the weekend before Doom 3's release. Thanks, guys!" Actually, they lost nothing. They simply didn't gain 2.75 million. The majority of the people who downloaded (and havn't preordered) probably wouldn't buy the game if they had to.

    They certainly won't now that they got the game for free. You don't have the right to get something just because you wouldn't pay for it anyway.
