Darl McBride Leaving SCO?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the take-the-money-and-run dept.

JoGiles writes "Linux-watch is reporting that while The SCO Group may go on to pursue its plans with a $100 million buyout, it will do so without its longtime CEO Darl McBride. Buried in the proposed MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) between Unix vendor and Linux litigator SCO and SNCP (Stephen Norris & Co. Capital Partners) is the note that "upon the effective date of the Proposed Plan of Reorganization, the existing CEO of the Company, Darl McBride, will resign immediately.""

    McBride can live a pretty decent life even in America's most affluent neighborhoods for virtually no work to be done. I know there's no justice in this, but we really don't want this guy doing any more work.
