UserFriendly sums up the SCO v. Novell rulings best, and JD Frazer kindly gave me permission to reproduce his cartoon here.

The worst thing ever happened
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, August 12 2007 @ 02:34 PM EDT
I don't get the joke. Yes, I have excuses (not a native speaker, other culture,
bla bla bla).

So please, can someone explain the joke?

Illiad does it again! Love the red dress! PJ, I didn't know you were a blond.
Groklaw for accurate information and UF for smiles - two of the sites I hit
every day.

Nice - what about a one with Darl getting hit with a cluestick ;)
Authored by: SilverWave on Sunday, August 12 2007 @ 02:59 PM EDT


1. cluestick


An object either a) being or b) resembling a stick.

A cluestick is used to beat the clueless into submission until he, she or it
gains clue.

SCO's Next Move..

They're gonna pay for this..."

Does Novell really own all Unix copyrights?
Authored by: DrHow on Sunday, August 12 2007 @ 10:59 PM EDT
Judge Kimball's Conclusion starts, "For the reasons stated above, the court
concludes that Novell is the owner of the UNIX and UnixWare copyrights."
However, I have been under the impression that this has never been clear - that
there is a significant amount of code in Unix for which the copyrights are held
by others besides Novell (HP being a prime example). It has even been
speculated that Novell's lack of ownership of copyright for some of the relevant
code is one of the (unstated) reasons for Novell having refused to 'sell' them.
Furthermore, it does not strike me that the Judge needed to rule that Novell
owns the copyrights - only that SCO did NOT buy them. So what's true?

Unfair depiction
Authored by: sgsax on Monday, August 13 2007 @ 09:58 AM EDT
I'm sure PJ is much more striking in a viking helmet than Illiad would have her
depicted here. :)

I always knew things would turn out right, I was just starting to think it would
be my grandchildren who would see it actually happen.

The fat lady warms up with SCO's stock price.
Authored by: Jaywalk on Monday, August 13 2007 @ 10:12 AM EDT
At the moment SCO's stock price is down nearly 75% to around 40¢. This is the first time the stock has actually dropped below it's pre-scam low of 69¢. You can follow the plunge of SCO's market cap here.

See? The Wall Street types really are awake! (Sorta.)
