Nice to see them get what they deserve. Bye-bye SCO. You won't be missed.

wow. Its not often you sue someone and instead of getting the $25 million you want, your told, nope your in the wrong, now you pay him $25 million.

That was a nuisance suit if I ever saw one. It never had the slightest bit of merit, and I'm glad they are paying the price for clogging up the court system and harassing people.

Best news I've read on the forums all night.

They certainly deserved it, a pity they could last this long.
