I for one do not like the way SCO is handling it's IP rights. They have put too many eggs into one flimsy basket. But, I can not for the life of me understand the actions taken by the community's minority to attack Darl McBride and his family directly. The man is just that a man and has the same right to some privacy as the rest of us. He has enough on his plate right now agree or disagree with SCO's actions. He does not deserve to be attacked in his home. If you want to get him at work I have no problem with that. Darl can't stop Linux, has a failing product in SCO UNIX and Linux, and has lost much of the support he could have had if SCO would have just publically fixed the alledged code violations. Darl is the figure head and is paid to be so. He is not in this battle entirely by his own choice. Even if he suggested SCO's current course of action there is a group of investors that voted on it. Leave Darl McBride alone for the truth will come out in court and he wines and points his fingers enough without our antagonism.
