SCO Granted Hearing on Potential Delisting

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the plead-for-your-life dept.

Groklaw Reader writes "SCO will be allowed an oral hearing on its potential delisting. The hearing is scheduled for March 17, 2005, so they again show us what they are best at: staving off impending doom. There is no way to predict the outcome of the hearings, but most of the informed speculation is negative, so there are no silver linings in this case. Unless you think they can find some crazy reason to sue the Nasdaq for billions over it..."

    I think that we've seen so much of SCO that we're all collectively out of things to say on the matter.

    Delist them and let them go away. Finally.

      Even worse, let's just say SCO completely disintegrates. Let's even say, for good measure, that the next year or two is gobbled up with shareholder lawsuits and torture sessions for McBride.

      At the end of it, someone is going to buy up what's left, and possibly even with an eye on the case against IBM. I'd rather that SCO survive long enough to be handed its testicles now, rather than have this ugly demon pop up again in 2007 or 2008.

    Delisting is not the end of a company. It takes the shine off their corporate presence, but little more. The huge crippling lawsuit on the other hand could well be the end for SCO, here's hoping. This is a non-story about a non-company.

    Bring on the litigation.............
