That was golden opportunity for a quality headline pun you missed there. You should have written: FiaSCO ends!

Actually, I doubt it's over. SCO will invariably appeal the finding. IBM vs. SCO (IBM's countersuit) isn't over. SCO vs. Red Hat isn't over. SCO vs. Autozone isn't over.

However, I'd think that the dominoes will start falling over, except for the part where SCO goes bankrupt right in the middle of having to pay penalties.

I do hope BS&F gets a piece of the Court's mind.
