SCO Zombie McBride's New Plan For World Litigation

eldavojohn writes "Years after you thought it was all over, Groklaw is reporting that Darl McBride (ex-CEO of SCO) has formed a new company that is buying SCO's mobile business for peanuts — but he's also going to get 'certain Intellectual Property' with the deal. You may recall that McBride was the brains behind the Linux lawsuits that SCO launched and it appears he may be orchestrating an exit route where he escapes with some IP intact, in order to wreak havoc once again. Hopefully this is the part at the end of the movie where the zombie comes back to life one last time only to have the hero deliver the final final blow. When this news broke upon the investment world, SCO's stock skyrocketed a blistering 11%, bringing it up seven cents to a full seventy cents — a level which it has not achieved since 2007."

Re:Unfortunately McBride isn't a Zombie

So it isn't legal to kill him, or have him killed. (So don't try this kids.)

I'm suddenly feeling like this thread has turned into a Mafia conversation. "Yes. Please don't hire a hit man. Please don't call Freddy at 555-0129. That's Freddy at 555-0129. His services cost $5,000 per hit plus expenses, so he is quite affordable, but again, I repeat, do *not* call Freddy at 555-0129. After all, that would be illegal. That's Freddy at 555-0129. Don't call him today."

You know, it's morning here as I read this, and nothing makes me giggle more than a post by someone who misread the article, followed by ten or more posts showing the incorrect math used, examples and why the post is mislead.

I haven't worked out whether it's
a) Altruism - No my friend, you got this wrong, here is how you were meant to interpret the article.
b) Pack mentality - No brother, you need to read it correctly, if we all read it correctly, our slashpack will become the most powerful pack on earth and we will enjoy the good life.

(It starts going downhill from here)
c) Nitpicking - You silly slashdotter, you read it wrong, naaarrny naarny nar nar!
d) Douchebaggery - Check it out, I am so much smarter than you, I am like a million times smarter than you, I read it correctly! Here is how it's meant to be read. Now bask in my glory!

But whatever the case, it's amusing, and I don't think there are many other sites that give me both nerd news and giggles.
