What's sad is that there's no punishment for such false accusations, so anyone can sue "just in case they win"
Then they fuck it up and they just go home and say "damn I could have made millions".

Well in a case like this you could counter-sue for lost revenue(and or expenses) due to a falsely filed lawsuit.

A lawyer may also make a motion for "loser pays."

Well IBM has countersued already, and no one is willing to buy anything from SCO, so they are toast.

I love the daily slamming of SCO on Slashdot.

I think this SCO debacle serves as a standing rebuttal to the notion that corporate policymakers must necessarily be more intelligent than your average moron.

This SCO thing seems to be going the way Rambus did a few years back...
Anoter year, another asshole company.

I don't see what's wrong with filing a lawsuit that puts your company's name in lights in a vain attempt to get someone to buy your company.
