I believe that's what you call a high-risk, high reward investment. It's like playing the lottery - if things do turn out wrt the lawsuits, they will look like geniuses. At least that's all I can think of for why they would pay so much for a company with no serious prospects of being profitable based on sales. |

IMHO the buyer is likely after SCO's customer list. Before you scoff at the idea, just think about it: a source of gullible people with lots of money to spend, ready for the taking - it's a scammer's dream, which could easily pay for itself many times over if handled correctly. Good grief, if these sheeple have been lining up to pay for fake SCO IP licenses, or spending IT money on the overpriced and underwhelming sco unix, imagine what they could cough up, if they were played skillfully. |

What is this company's name? That is one thing I'd like to know right now. |
