Why SCO Must Die . . . Now

CRN interviewed SCO CEO Darl McBride about their suit against IBM. Among other things, he says straight out that once the IBM suit is over, they plan to go after Red Hat and SuSE. It's hard to tell from the article if McBride is arrogant, ignorant, or a plain fool. Whatever the case, IBM will crush them one way or the other. I just hope they manage to do it in such a way that McBride and his brood do not benefit from it. Countersuing them out of existence and then buying up the scraps would do it. Maybe all Linux users could get a free whack at his kneecaps with a Louisville slugger too. Thanks Slashdot.

Or maybe he's just doing this because his parents named him "Darl."

The Master comments: I was willing to cut SCO a LOT of slack on their lawsuits until they sued IBM. Now, I am truly irritated by their gall. Obviously they deserve to earn no more of anyone's money, much less ill-gotten money like the kind they're working for now.
