SCO Preps Appeals Against Novell and IBM
An anonymous reader writes "It looks like SCO will be emerging from the almost dead soon, with new owners and $100 million on board. SNCP is adjusting the business strategy, according to this report on TG Daily, SCO is saying goodbye to CEO Darl McBride and is also preparing to appeal the summary judgments in the cases against Novell and IBM. If you have thought the chapter was closed, think again. Those $100 million can go a long way (even if SCO has to pay 17% interest on it)."
It looks like SCO will be emerging from the almost dead soon, with new owners and ... is also preparing to appeal the summary judgments in the cases against Novell and IBM.
This time please use holy water and lawyers made of silver.
Operator, give me the number for 911!
This is like a bad Ed Wood movie. "Plan 10 from SCO"

Who keeps giving/lending these clowns money?
Wouldn't it be more correct to call them zombies at this point? Vampires? The undead?
Something like that.
Je me fous du passé
I think this comic applies here too...

At least with a lottery ticket you have some odds of winning...
Undead clown lawyers... I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight.
Damn, SCO is like a villain in a horror movie where you can never kill them. Maybe a wooden stake through the heart or silver bullet will do the trick?
is a death will.
Heay, there's always the possibility that the judge will get a brain tumor and rule in favor of SCO before running off to New York City to take up naked mime breakdancing.

Ok Tux, you lead the way into SCO headquarters while I look for clues in this refrigerator!
Ruh-uh, Reejay! Roo rarey!
Not even for a Tuxsnack?
Roh-ray!

Obviously PJ arranged the new funding so Groklaw could continue operating.
But then again, I could be wrong.
What about Darl? I've heard he'll be made a Microsoft Fellow, in recognition to his outstanding contributions to that company. He'll begin a new role there as a Microsoft Technology Evangelist ;-)
I know. There's a musical coming out on Broadway soon, I'm sure. I think it's called: "S-C-O, Way to Go!" with such hits as "It's a wonderful mockery", "It's my rights and I'll do what I what with them", "Back in the Old Routine", "Look what happened to Darl" and the big hit number "Hello Lolly!"
America, Home of the Brave.
Why am I suddenly reminded of the Princess Bride??
Either way, hopefully SCO will soon be all dead. Because they really are a bunch of litigious bastards who are just plain annoying at this point. They don't own anything, and they never demonstrated any infringement on the stuff they claimed to own, so I don't even know how they can be appealing this.

Personally, I prefer the Mercedes Lackey method -- load up a pistol with alternating rounds of silver, cold iron and blessed lead, and empty the whole thing into the target. One of them is bound to be effective.
Don't forget that as part of the deal, SCO gets rid of its biggest impediment, its heaviest boat-anchor, perhaps one of the most negative factors during the previous trials...
Daryl and his big moouth.
The living have better things to do than to continue hating the dead.
Maybe, but imagine the environmental catastrophe resulting from having anything SCO-contaminated that close to the water table. Within a year we'd have zombie lawyers popping up in the next town downstream.
Redundancy is good And also good.
Just make sure that that next town is Washington, and it'll be an improvement :).
Forget magic. Any technology distinguishable from divine power is insufficiently advanced.
