Pretty pathetic isn't it ?  It seems that if SCO cannot fight on the merits
of it's software, and they are losing ground quickly in the fight against
IBM, they have to resort to this pathetic level of desparateness.  They have
not been able to prove anything in court, yet.  I just worry about ignorant
congressmen whom don't know the real story giving SCO more ear than they
deserve.  God help their customers !
