The SCO Business Model
Anybody that has followed the exploits of SCO (the Utahrian software company) may notice one thing: for a company that doesn’t release an awful lot, they spend a lot of time in court trying to sue the pants of somebody.
Some might say (not me — I like my pants) that SCO make more lawsuits than software.

Profit!
The reason I mention it is SCO are hunting down (with intent to serve), Groklaw‘s blogger-in-chief, Pamela Jones… Only they can’t find her!
She has said on Groklaw that she’s going away for ‘health reasons’ but I wish her the best of luck playing games with SCO. If any fat company deserves it, SCO does.
