First the good news:  BayStar Capital Management LLC is threatening to withdraw its $20 million investment from SCO unless SCO "makes changes".

Now the bad news:  The bastards think SCO isn't being aggressively litigious enough.

Good. Let the VC vultures add to the anxiety of SCO's suits. Let SCO take BS Capital's $20E6 and waste it on more stupid lawsuits. Let both companies go right down the drain, and take Microsoft with them.

I may not know much about software companies and venture capitalists, but I know who I detest!

Heh. I'm right with you there.

Frankly, though, SCO's goose is cooked already. It's only a matter of time. It's questionable whether the unravelling link back to Microsoft is going to do Microsoft significant damage, though.

Oh, speaking of Microsoft, they've bought themselves another "study," ostensibly on software security this time. It's going to come out next month sometime, and it's going to assert that Linux is about 10% buggier than Microsoft software. Funny how no-one seems to be finding or reporting all those critical Linux security bugs, isn't it?
