SCO brings Linux licensing to Europe
Talkback I have been following this farce from the beginning of last year and SCO has yet to sue anyone. Another inane press release from Sontag/Darl and co. At least once a week they release a press statement that they are in the process or days away from...

SCO fights back against 'don't pay' advice
Talkback Anyone who actually buys a SCO Linux "licence" should ask themselves why they are buying the "licence". SCO have not proved they own the copyrights, despite requiring you to buy a "licence" allowing you use of "their" code.

Talkback SCO's USA licensing program has been in operation for about 6 months. According to their latest accounting report, released last month, they have so far received virtually no income from it. I expect the world-wide licensing program wil be as big a...

SCO brings Linux licensing to Europe
Talkback It's been a year or so and SCO has been unable to show anything in Linux that has anything to do with the now obsolete software SCOG's predecessors bought from Novell. Smart reporters are asking "what exactly do you get for this license fee".

SCO takes softly, softly approach downunder
Talkback SCO has no case what so ever and with the media hyping up their FUD without actually presenting the facts make's them just as wrong as SCO. SCO will be bankrupt in the next 60 days mark my words. Tomorrow after the case gets thrown out and SCO is...

SCO bullish despite email revelations
Talkback As irony would have it, it would seem that this SCO-Linux has ended up being the best publicity for Linux possible. SCO's total incompetence has more than proved that Linux is clean of copyright stains.

SCO ponders hike in 'Linux IP' licence fees
Talkback SCO: Better pay up now for protection, or you never know what will happen to you. It sounds like the script from a gangster movie: Wouldn't want to be sued now would you. Better pay now, or the fees will double later.

SCO updates its Unix product and open source attitude
Talkback SCO. Too little, too late. Perhaps they're starting to realise what life is like for a Microsoft puppet but quite frankly, I couldn't care less. Darwin doesn't favour too environmental depandant or overspecialized species you see.
