SCO granted copyright appeal

SCO has managed to hang on to its existence for a little longer, following a recent appeals hearing.

This development comes after SCO won an appeal in court this week, backtracking on previous court decisions.

Get a grip SCO you morons. That's not a viable business model.

Didn't Microsoft fund part of this lawsuit circus, the part against Linux? It's just a vague memory and I might be wrong. But if the suit against Novell includes portions targeted at Linux and open source in general... from Microsoft's normal "nothing personal, it's just business, and anyhow I've got mine now gimme yours" operating philosophy it would make sense for them to keep the SCO lawsuit fantasy going.
