SCO Files MORs for March
,----[ Quote ]
| SCO has filed its monthly operating reports
| for March. This is the month they did the deal
| with Ralph Yarro, so we find out what they did
| first with that loan money. Pay themselves, of
| course, and their lawyers. And one of their
| experts.

SCO's New Proposed Sale Plan - Wants to Sue Linux Users Some More
,----[ Quote ]
| - By the way, did you catch the part about "other potential defendants" in
| addition to Novell, IBM, Red Hat and AutoZone? Everybody pretty much goes to
| unXis, leaving McBride as captain of the Good Ship SCO, and he gets to sue
| and sue and sue, while the assets have gone to unXis, so if SCO loses all the
| litigation, then the victors get no spoils and can't be be made whole by the
| legal process. But what particularly struck me is SCO saying that they will
| be able "to move the UNIX business forward with unXis in a very exciting
| way." "With unXis"? In what sense? It starts to hint that this is more a
| renaming, taking in some new management who seem to have financial expertise,
| and SCO keeps skipping along as unXis, with the dangerous litigation spun off
| safely into a litigation troll. Is that not what you see?

SCO vs. Linux: New investor rescues SCO from bankruptcy
,----[ Quote ]
| In yet another bizarre twist in the interminable legal dispute over source
| code allegedly illegally copied from UNIX System V into Linux, the SCO Group,
| which claims ownership of the disputed code, has secured a last-gasp reprieve
| from the threat of liquidation. Immediately before the crucial liquidation
| hearing in the bankruptcy court, SCO CEO Darl McBride signed an agreement
| with a company by the name of Gulf Capital Partners, backed by well-known
| investor Stephen Norris. Caught out by the surprise development, all parties
| have agreed to postpone the liquidation hearing until the 16th or the 27th of
| July.

SCO Group strikes deal just before bankruptcy hearing
,----[ Quote ]
| The SCO Group lives.
|
| Facing life or death, officers of the embattled Utah software company signed
| a deal Monday just before walking into a federal bankruptcy courtroom for a
| hearing on motions to liquidate it. Instead, they proposed selling off the
| company's Unix business to a London-based firm, while keeping its licensing
| claims that are part of high-profile lawsuits involving IBM, Novell and other
| companies.
|
| The SCO Group also would retain its mobile application business, an area
| where it sees big potential growth.
|
| "We signed that deal just minutes before the court hearing, and walked in and
| handed it to them, " said Darl McBride, CEO of Lindon-based SCO.

After the Hearing: Reports From Our Eyewitnesses - Updated
,----[ Quote ]
| So, the bottom line of the day is that the proposed sale to
| Gulf-Cap-whatever-their-name-really-turns-out-to-be (see previous article)
| will have a hearing on July 16, as Webster earlier reported. So we will no
| doubt get to see the proposed agreement filed, and then objections, the usual
| song and dance. So, bottom line? Delay, delay, delay. It's too bad SCO can't
| package it up and sell delay. They'd make a fortune. It is what they are best
| at, I'd say.

SCO Does It, Quite Frankly, As Usual
,----[ Quote ]
| As it stands, everything remains up in the air â the proposed sale is by no
| means final, and if it is like any of the others, is likely nothing more than
| a delaying tactic. If the judge has any sense about him, when and if this
| deal falls through like all the rest, he'll wake up and finally start
| sanctioning SCO for treating the Bankruptcy Code like kindling. If it falls
| through by next month's hearing, SCO will need a miracle even Satan couldn't
| help them get to avoid conversion into a Chapter 7 â once the Chapter 7
| trustee gets his hands on them, they'll find themselves sold off faster than
| $5 Ferraris. By the time it finally happens, that champagne we all put away
| in 2002 will be just about right.
