Yes, in this case, the big time litigation is farmed out to Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP. Cravath is getting paid either way, and they'll bleed SCO and whoever behind SCO dry.
Because IBM has SysV source code themself, and they knew perfectly well what IBM have contributed to Linux. They just want to force SCO's hand into admitting that the case is nothing more than Pump'N'Dump. They certaintly won't win any favors from the Judge by lowering themself to SCO's juveneil pranks.

The $50M deal isn't with DeutcheBank, but with a Venture Capitalist firm that's structured very favoritable to the VC firm.
When I was buying my IBM Thinkpad, it came with a feature of calling home, should the machine be stolen. The call home mechanism is build in, and cannot be removed. What it requires is a subscription fee to activate the feature, sort of like LoJack for laptop.
For the people with sensative information, it's bitter price that must be pay.
While most of the episode doesn't require editing, some requires major surgery. In the episode "Jungle Cruise", Boutu of Section 9 confronts his past as a CIA operative who conducts psyop warfare on a gurella forces. One of his former comrad went insane himself, and took that technique to Japan in an attempt to get Boutu to kill him. The psyop warfare technique involves skinning a women, while keeping her alive to be found by her people. I just don't see how they're going to get around the issue of skinning.
I'm positive that they've already done that. Which is the reason they're asking SCO to point out the code misapproation. INAL, but one thing I've always understand about legal system, you don't want to ask question you don't know the answers to. IBM knew full well what's what. They're keeping their mouth shut in public (it is after all a court case), and doing their damage in court.
You should be aware that one of the remedy that IBM will seek when they win the case (or the case is toss outright) is legal fee from SCO for filing frivilous lawsuit. Cravath, Swaine and Moore is one of the biggest law firm on Earth, and they don't come cheap. The printout-scan-PDF-printout might be a giggle or two, but hundreds of paralegal with tens of thousand of billable hours adds up to lots and lots of legal fee that IBM will held someone to pay, be it SCO or their puppet masters.
IBM has no intention of doing SCO's bidding. Buying out them out has been SCO's plan A from the start. When IBM pulls out Cravath, Swaine, Moore, SCO went into plan B.
Laputa: The Castle in the Sky is probably the only synthesizer sounding soundtrack that Joe Hiasaishi did. He wasn't satisified about it. So when Disney want to pay for re-orchestration of the soundtrack, he's more than happy to oblige.
New World's mangling of Nausicaa is the reason Ghibli is reluctant to license any more movie to North American market. It's only after they got an iron-clad contract that not one frame of film be removed without their approval that Miyazaki agreed to release the film here.
The SCO management don't really care if they actually have one paying customer or not. The majority of their revenue in the past 2 quarter has been the licensing fee (bribe) by HP, SUN and Microsoft. All they need to do is to hold on for 3 more quarter, and they can cash out with the stock option. Should the company be in receivership by then, they don't care.
There was a rash of unauthorized (and illegal) Andy Warhol stamp made and used by his friends. The whole thing is a large performance arts excercise, to see how far and much the US Postal is willing to accept this unauthorized stamp. Surprisingly, US Postal isn't aware of this illegal stamp until it was pointed out to them.
Jimmy was an officier in the Navy attack submarine. He had to quit the Navy and take over the family business after his father died. Can't have Billy drive the farm into the ground.
Davis noted that McBride had only mentioned about 100 lines of code being identical in Linux and Unix System V. And while other code may look similar, he said that there are "only so many ways of writing 2+2=4".
Amazing. For a while I thought we managed to slashdot their pipe. And then I realized that this is AOL we're talking 'bout here. Why bother with a bittorrent when they have more bandwidth than we know what to do with.
Armor cannot scaled up the same pace as projectile. There is a diminish point of return in terms of usefulness of armor's thickness vs. its weight. I presumed that we can get neutronium armor, but at such heavy weight, it's practically useless for mobile forces.

I hear the call of Conan the Barbarian:
To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women!
That's IBM's goal in regard to SCO

IBM is represented in this case by Cravath, Swaine & Moore. They knew what they're doing.
I ususally make milestone ghost image. That way, uninstalling software cleaning takes 2 minutes.

Reading monster amount of legal briefs are what lawyers and paralegals are paid to do. It's their job.
This ain't animal testing. SCO lawyers don't qualified as animals. They aren't that bright.
The French dub did have Jean Reno as Porco Rosso (Marco). Lets hope Michael Keaton does a good job on the English dub.

One guess is Microsoft, via a third party. It's a stealthy way of pumping up SCO stock price and funding them at the same time.
Yep, we have him to thank for the 1994 agreement with North Korea that wasn't worth the paper it's printed on.

Oh, I like this line:

You somehow introduced a space after med. Not that it makes much differences. This may be the first time we managed to slashdot an AOL served item.
