Comments on: Justice is served: SCO ordered to pay Novell millions

SCO is a nettlesome weed, but at least it's being made to pay.

Better, go after MSFT for instigating the bogus action.

True justice would be Darl doing 5-10 in a federal pen.

He knew he didn't have a case before he started this farce.

If anything, people who actually held SCO stock should be taking every dime he has.

Does SCO even have $2.55 million? Last I heard revenues are less then the cost of running this scam.

SCO's market cap at the close of trading was 3.28M, but in just this week it has been as low as 2.4M. It's a very volatile penny stock. For what it's worth, looking at their last quarterly report shows that they've been losing about 2.5M per quarter for the past few quarters. If they pay Novell, they won't have any cash, if they don't pay, they've got about 3 months of operating funds... Do you suppose their lawyers will work pro-bono? Perhaps they can work a deal to get Jonathan Lee Riches to represent them via conference call.

Now that this is done any bets on stock holders lawsuits against the board members ensuring that not one of them sits on aboard again?
I can hardly wait for the lawyer to sue for his money too. Novels lawyer will most certainly be awarded fees from this too.
Then there is MSFT who didn't instigate this incident but they tried to help fund it to the tune of 100 million dollars based on dayrls licensing lies.
Now how many of these companies are going to file fruad charges against SCO?
Lets just say SCO is the one that kicked over this hornets nest they will be the ones who pay, pay, and pay again!!
Bankruptcy is the next step.

Right, Novell should go after MSFT. Do we really know to any degree of certainty that MSFT didn't instigate the action?
