SCO SUCKS IT DOWN! -- 4:37 pm CST, Update by The Master

That's right folks. The SCO vs. everyone BS is game over. The ruling in SCO vs. Novell is that Novell owns the copyrights, and summary judgement is granted in that respect. This should terminate all of SCO's antics with respect to Linux.

the court concludes that Novell is the owner of the UNIX and UnixWare copyrights. Therefore, SCO's First Claim for Relief for slander of title and Third Claim for specific performance are dismissed, as are the copyright ownership portinos of SCO's Fifth Claim for Relief for unfair competition and Second Claim for Relief for breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The court denies SCO's cross-motion for summary judgment on its own slander of title, breach of contract, and unfair competition claims, and on Novell's slander of title claim. Accordingly, Novell's slander of title claim is still at issue.

Now, the question is what is Microsoft's next move?
