"Q: What is SCO's strategy until the IBM case goes to trial in February 2007?
A: After the lawsuit was filed, we sat down as a management team almost a year ago and we asked, Where are we trying to go?"
I wonder how many people will notice this admission of incompetence. Wouldn't the time to have this meeting have been before the filing? It's a bit too late to be worrying about SCO's future now. The company has no future as most of the investors that have sold their stocks at a loss and those hanging on are hoping for some sort of miracle (an IBM buyout for example) to make them whole again. Those who sponsored McBride at first have already been ushered from the building and legal actions are pending even within the SCO ownership hierarchy. McBride goes on to say that he doesn't think SCO will be "finished" if they lose the lawsuit even though he admits that he thought so at one time. This is all just wishful thinking. He knows the chances are slim to none, and he also knows his resume is practically worthless at this point. Like many in this day and age this man was raised without the ability to evaluate downside risks. That won't prevent him from having to experience the results or poor risk calculations though. Too bad he dragged so many with him.
