"At this point I feel nasty. I don't just want the SCO threat to go away. I want SCO to come out looking really, really, really stupid."

You sir are far kinder than I. With all of the misbehavior, and the extremity of ingratitude of SCO / Caldera in regards to Linux (Just how DID Caldera get the money to buy SCO in the first place? Oh yeah, a hot Linux IPO a few years back). I don't just want the SCO threat to go away either. I want to see them crash their company into the flaming wreckage it is heading for. In the aftermath of this debacle I suspect that those at the helm of SCO, particularly Chris Sontag will have a fun time finding any sort of employment beyond that which requires one to ask "Would you like some fries with that burger sir?" I am actually wondering if what the SCO folks are doing is illegal, perhaps some criminal indictments are due... Of course after the Enron folks and all those guys.

Go easy on the kids in burger land. They may not be compensated like a SCO exec, but at least they're making a honest living.

And Jon, as much as I'd enjoy a report on SCO's technical claims, I'd recommend against signing anything with them:

Whatever you find, you'd likely not be able to write about thanks to the NDA. In fact, it may inhibit your ability to legally report on anything SCO related.
I see the excitement (this is about the closest thing a Linux Journalist can find to war reporting) but it's not worth the risk.

A rundown on the NDA might be entertaining.

Working in the fast-food industry would probably give ol' Chris too much satisfaction. After all, isn't McDonalds one of SCO's biggest customers?
