I love it. It's the keystone cops maneuver. Those guys are such jokes, in the sickest and saddest way. I heard on "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" that humans share a greater fraction of their genes with rats than with cats. Me, though, I'm much more embarassed by sharing a large fraction of my genetic code with McBride and Sontag.
The code *may well* be copied just as SCO says. But it would have been *legitimately* copied.
Two possibilities. First, yes, the McBride and Sontag show is really that stupid, and they've just found the copied code without realizing that SCO/Caldera BSD'ed it years ago. Second, they do know that, but are hoping that nobody will notice; not letting anybody who won't side with them see the code until the very last minute is part of their plan to prevent people from figuring out that in fact the code was legitimately copied.

That's why McBride and gang will be making a fortune dumping their previously worthless stocks, and that's probably all they've ever wanted to do. It's sad.

Well, that's what their whole farce is about, isn't it? "All your base are belong to us", so no matter where it's copied from, they own it. And so there is no such thing as legitimate copying, no matter what all those nasty evil un-American commie pinko licenses say. What a nice, tidy, convenient hypothesis.Heise reports from SCO Forum
Regardless of how stupid a show they're putting on, there always are people stupid enough to buy into their crap.Heise reports from SCO Forum
I hope that they DO make a fortune dumpint their stocks. I also hope they get charged with illegal stock market manipulationHeise reports from SCO Forum
