satirical newsflash I'd like to see in 'The Onion'
In a surprising turn of events SCO has announced that SCO's right hand is suing SCO's left hand for IP theft and the violation of trade secrets. When asked about the pending case SCO CEO Darl McBride had this to say.
"SCO's left hand has been illegally infringing on SCO right hand Intelectual Property by adding our Unix System V code into Linux. It has also come to light that hardware was donated to the open source community without the consent of the right hand. That infringement must be punished. We at the SCO right hand office have the obligation to protect our property from all parties including the left hand of SCO"
When asked how this would affect the lawsuit with IBM Darl quite emphatically stated that
"This should finally show IBM and the entire open source community that we mean buisness and that we will protect what we believe is ours no matter how rediculous it looks!
yup, and after the 'No-really-we're-serious-this-time-guys-last-ditch -final termination notice'... has been posted I fully expect the United Nations will step up and sue SCO for infringing on their development methods;-)
I was interested to see what this book had to say unitl I noticed the URL. It lost credibility with me very fast. Kudos to Dennis Ritchie for his Anti-Foreword.

SCO says they 'Have no plans to sue Linux companies...'
translation: 'Linux companies are going to sued next and soon'
I really wish that SCO would just say what they mean.
