Here's a good article on how it relates to their bottom line:<br><br> <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.fool.com/News/mft/2004/mft04 ... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <br><br>I just don't understand how they can possibly hope to stay in business long enough to see any of this money they are after (and that assumes they actually win any of their cases).<br><br> <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><br>Real Geeks don't make there own backups.

The hypothesis is not that they're trying to stay in business long enough to collect, but that they're trying to buoy the stock price long enough for the execs to sell their equity in the company.<br><br>It's called a "pump 'n' dump" in Wall Street terms. <p></p><i></i>

This just keeps getting better. <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,15 ... sp">Here's a link to a 3-page article</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> on these two suits, specifically, and how they are affected (or not) by other SCO litigation elsewhere. <!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>"You now have a little company suing four immense companies in different places on very different claims and supposing that it can take all of this on at once.
