How long can SCO last ?

Here’s a fun quote from the IT Managers Journal:


The IBM case, which is likely to be the first one up, is not scheduled for trial until February 2007. Meanwhile, the company has less than $13 million of cash on hand, and is spending more than $2 million a month on average — you do the math.

But my favourite quote has to be:


Always the optimist, Darl McBride, president and CEO of The SCO Group, put on his rose-colored glasses and described the recent financials as “a productive quarter for SCO.” Unfortunately, SCO did not take questions during its conference call so no one could ask how he might define an “unproductive quarter.”

You know someone’s in trouble when even the serious journos are making fun of their company..
