Common SCO PR tacticCommon SCO PR tacticPosted Mar 3, 2004 14:20 UTC (Wed) by dcoutts (guest, #5387)In reply to: SCO announces quarterly results, first user target by clugstj Parent article: SCO announces quarterly results, first user target It's just like SCO's amended complaint against IBM about copyright infringement - that SCO touts in it's press releases - but then on closer inspection it's not a copyright infringement complaint related to Linux, only IBM's continued distribution of AIX. SCO want you to think it's about the big Linux issue so they can use it to persuade other companies to liscence 'their IP'. Suppose for sake of argument that AutoZone did use the SCO libs and that SCO wins the case on that basis; this doesn't set a precedent for normal Linux users but you can just imagine the joyful press releases from SCO if that happened saying they've been vindicated and now we all have to pay up. It's like watching a magic trick, it's all sleight of hand and misdirection.
