What To Do About SCO? Let’s Spend More Money on Professional Advisors

“Mr. Cahn has filed with the bankruptcy court an application to
hire a financial advisor/investment banker, Ocean Park Advisors, to
advise him on what he should do about SCO. Should they reorganize,
sell off and shut down or what? It’s complicated. Not to mention
expensive. Wait. Does SCO have any money it doesn’t already owe to
someone?

“…That’s not why. The company never made a profit ever, except
the quarters when Sun and Microsoft got SCOsource licenses. Most of
us have never believed that was about obtaining Debtors’ UNIX-based
products. We saw it more as an anticompetitive misuse by proxy of
the courts. And we don’t believe SCO owns UNIX or the
copyrights.

a competitive offering to compete, and SCO chose to use the Sun and
Microsoft money to pay lawyers instead of techies. People
noticed.”
