It actually started to unravel earlier when SCO went into the
whole deal assuming it didn't matter how good a case they
had, It didn't unravel. They had a case, good or bad, as they
were supposed to with the funds from the Monopoly. They could say "Don't use
Linux. It is stolen and illegal." They could say it for years.
IBM and the others would settle because it was cheaper than litigating, and it
turned out IBM didn't use the same arithmetic in tallying up the costs. McBride
should've folded the moment IBM raised, cut his losses and gotten out.
McBride had no losses to cut. The suit was his "Raison d'ĂȘtre"
and meal ticket. The target was fixed by the Monopoly. He didn't succeed in
settling for or winning the billions. His damage, and returns were greatly
limited, thanks to pj some would say.
