IBM Files for Partial Summary Judgement vs SCO

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the you-look-good-in-your-legal-briefs dept.

Armchair Dissident writes "The Register is reporting that IBM has filed for partial summary judgement against SCO. Groklaw also has the story, and is saying that SCO was still offering the disputed code for download as recently as August 4 2004. If this is true, then - according to Groklaw - SCO's case must surely be scuppered. Again."

    They can continue until Micro$oft stops giving them money. SCO has been a cheap source of Linux Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt for over a year now. What's a couple million more dollars to a company that has billions in reserve?

    Your cause is just. A silent majority of the /. community knows you are right, and we're pulling for you.

    We'll have the last laugh. PJ and Perens showed their true colors when they attempted that ridiculous "linux insurance" money grab.

    It's funny, IBM's legal team doesn't miss anything but they seem to always wait until the most opportune time to bring it up.

    If only their software development teams were capable of this kind of activity, AIX wouldn't be pronounced "aches" and people would actually look forward to moving their company to an IBM solution.
