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."
My comment to them: Hello, I was looking at your site, and I noticed an error on the page found at http://www.sco.com/company/profile.html According to that page, "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." I understand that this oversight, and your general stupidity over the past few years is likely a result of the rampant inbreeding in Utah, but I would strongly suggest you remove this section of text - especially considering the bitchslap you oh so dearly deserved, and received from the courts. Thank you for your time, and suck my balls. This message brought to you by the letter Q, the number 09F911029D74E35BD84156C563568C? (ha, bet you thought you could get me on DMCA charges, you litigious bastards. One character unknown, oh noes, it's not a violation!), and everyone who doesn't have their head stuck up their ass.
