I just jumped over to Yahoo! Financials, which shows that SCO has a market cap of $170M. If that number is real, it seems like a good idea would be for open source users to find a way to buy the company.
Under new ownership, the SCO management could be fired en masse and the "New SCO" could then sue the CEO and others for return of stock option gains, etc. It doesn't make any difference that the suits might be baseless -- under the current SCO doctrine, bringing lawsuits is just about making money; it's even better than rolling out new products! So why not give them a taste of their own medicine?
Let's see -- 1,000,000 users at $200 apiece... That's tougher than it sounds. Well I can dream, can't I?
