Judge Tosses Most of SCO Claims Over Linux Code 75% Open Source Investment: Linux
Dec 04

After a judge held up a ruling that threw out most of SCO’s case investors punished the stock sending it down 40% to $1.20 on Friday. This was reported over at www.vnunet.com. Two great lines from the article that sum up the case.

The judge stated that the software firm had failed to produce any evidence to back up its intellectual property ownership claims.

SCO countered that IBM already knew what code it had “stolen” and was therefore in a much better position to disclose the details.

The second quote is the best. If I could sum up their claims in one sentence, this would be it. “We’re not sure what you stole, please tell us so we can collect monetary damages.”
