SCO Loses
An anonymous reader writes "The one summary judgement that puts a stick into SCO's spokes has just come down. The judge in the epic SCO case has ruled that SCO doesn't own the Unix copyrights. With that one decision, a whole bunch of other decisions will fall like dominoes. As PJ says, 'That's Aaaaall, Folks! ... All right, all you Doubting Thomases. I double dog dare you to complain about the US court system now. I told you if you would just be patient, I had confidence in the system's ability to sort this out in the end. But we must say thank you to Novell and especially to its legal team for the incredible work they have done. I know it's not technically over and there will be more to slog through, but they won what matters most, and it's been a plum pleasin' pleasure watching you work. The entire FOSS community thanks you for your skill and all the hard work and thanks go to Novell for being willing to see this through."
A million Redmond developers cried out in pain!

blow your mind already
Turns out that SCO owns the copyright on the "Duke Nukem Forever" code.
The case is expected to be settled just before the universe dies a heat-death.
You forgot the billions of hours slashdot posters used to create countless amout of SCO rants and flames.
I paid $699 and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

Message: It says, "SCO owns the core UNIX operating system, originally developed by AT&T/Bell Labs and is the exclusive licensor to Unix-based system software providers."
NO, YOU DON'T! HA! HA!
Now get those lies off your website.
Cheers!
And then I got the message: Thank you for your feedback.
And in smaller print: You will be hearing from us soon.
Do you think that was a threat?
Ignore this signature. By order.
What more be said?
"needs to"?
I wouldn't worry.
Assassins cost money.
But then again, I could be wrong.
Circumcision is child abuse.
