From: Adam Flinton 

Just did a little lookup on SCO on the forbes site to try & get some
timing perspective on all this...the company description is just soooooo
last year...

SCOX

"Background
The SCO Group, Inc. develops and markets software  based onthe Linux
operating system and provides related  services that enable the
development, deployment and  management of Internet access devices and
specialized  servers. For the 3 months ended 1/31/03, revenues fell  24% to
$13.5M. Net loss declined 93% to $724K. Revenues  reflect the continuing
worldwide economic slowdown. Lower  loss reflects the absence of $4.3M in
restructuring costs.   "


Note:

"The SCO Group, Inc. develops and markets software  based onthe Linux
operating system"

LOL.....developed, marketed...

Methinks I have spotted numerous downward plunging graphs e.g.:

Earnings Per Share      (Units in U.S. Dollars $)
Quarter         2002    2003
Q1      -0.77   -0.06
Q2      -0.47   --
Q3      -0.35   --
Q4      -0.27   --
Total   -1.86   -0.06


.77 > .06 in 4-5 Q'es....wow these guys must be top notch management...
