SCO Stock In Danger of Delisting, Again
hweimer writes "In 2005, SCO got into delisting trouble because they failed to file their annual 10-K report in a timely manner. SCO seems to be headed the same way again for a different reason: the stock price is too low to meet Nasdaq's requirements. Quoting: '[W]hat can a company do to boost its share price? Besides stopping to burn money and come up with a working business model, I mean.'"
Urgent message to Uncle Bill and Uncle Steve, Please stop throwing chairs and throw some money for us. Yours SCO
sed -e 's/Chuck Norris/Rajnikant/g' joke > fact
It's true I tell you, feller at work's next door neighbour read it in the paper.
I guess SCO could buy back their own shares ...
... if they were out of toilet paper or maybe had some other serious paper related dilemma ;-)

Hold him back, he's desperate.
Tie a bunch of sheets together, making a giant cloth balloon. Attach that to the bucket. Build a fire in the bucket, filling the balloon with hot air. Grab a bottle of champagne to celebrate when the balloon pulls the boat out of the water. Gasp in dismay as you realize you forgot to attach the bucket to the boat.

Technology experts Dan Lyons and Maureen O'Gara were also on hand to bolster SCO's claims. "We've seen all the SCO materials and while its far to secret to disclose, there is no doubt in our minds that NASDAQ is actually a front for Groklaw."
If brevity is the soul of wit, then how does one explain Twitter?

the SCO business model is simply the application of public relations and litigation to a large scale version of the business model employed by that crackhead cousin of yours that shows up at family functions from time to time looking for cash: getting paid to go away.
the sheer number of crackhead cousins in the united states is evidence that this is a viable business model.

How soon till SCO stock is cheaper than toilet paper?
It already is. Have you priced a package of toilet paper lately?
The truth shall set you free!
I think someone's been playing too many adventure games.
Redundancy is good And also good.
That would make their trading symbol

... SCO is on something ..."
He's only out by two letters. It should read: "
I suggest sending out 400 million anonymous emails: SCO has announced priority production of devices based on its proprietary technology. Analysts indicate that there is "almost limitless demand for this revolutionary technology". XYZI is rated an immediate and "STRONG BUY".
Life needs more saving throws.
He'd be violating the non-disclosure agreement, which says in part:
Agreement between SCO, Inc. and [redacted]:
The party of the second agrees not to disclose any of the lies he hears from the party of the first.
Knowledge is how to play a game, intelligence is how to win, wisdom is knowing what game to play.
Not enough. He forgot to take the rope from the hanging corpse in the janitor's closet.

would probably accelerate the collapse of the company.
You say that like it's a bad thing...

Here's what happens:
1) Novell gets Unix back.
2) Novell does deal with Microsoft.
3) Novell changes name to SCO.
4) Novell (i.e. SCO) stops SuSE.
5) Novell (SCO) sues IBM.
6) Prifit!

Two reasons not to use SCO stock for TP:
1. Paper cuts.
2. Already full of "stuff".
