SCO question (Stock Price)

[Zscoundrel]

But buying them at penny stock prices is much better than buying them 
when they 'claim' to be a viable company.

I doubt that M$ would let the stock get to penny status.  They have a 
vested interest in maintaining control.  So. . . hmmm . . . that DOES 
give me an idea. . . . (evil chuckle)  . . . . .

If the stock does get close to penny status, we will have to talk.  
Perhaps we need to form an investment group.  I see a way to do a little 
commerce and make a little profit from the evil empire if things shake 
out properly.

and learned.  So SCO try 2,  if we sue they will buy us as a settlement.  Now with all the other 
stuff happening, I was hoping to see the stock drop to penny status, then the Lug's, FSF, OSDN, and 
a few other groups could buy the stock in mass.  Fire the board and open it up.  Still would have a 
few licensing issues, but since Novell bought Suse, I think they could be resolved.

If you examine how Bill Gates funded research into solving the social issues he is concerned about 
las year, you would notice that he is 14 times more concered about the global threat of Linux than 
he is about AIDS. 

This is understandable when you consider the method of transmission.  I suspect Bill is probably 
much more likely to get Linux than he is to get AIDS!!!  After all, you can download and install 
Linux by yourself!
