The SCO Group, Inc. seems to be in dire straits at the moment. Last week, Judge Dale A. Kimball in a summary statement made it crystal clear that he was unimpressed with with SCO’s lack of evidence that IBM has violated any copyrights that SCO claims to own. Today, NASDAQ warned SCO Systems that they have missed multiple deadlines to file their 10-K statment for their 2004 fiscal year and will soon be de-listed.

I am now, more that ever, convinced that SCO has been bluffing from the start, trying to extort money from Big Blue and from enterprise Linux users. Someone needs to teach Darl McBride, SCO’s CEO, the rules of poker. If your opponent sees your bet and then calls, you need to show your cards. The U.S. District Court for the State of Utah has called for your cards. Now SEC is calling for your cards. It’s time to show your cards Darl!
