[Leaplist] SCOX delisting imminent, closed at $0.20!

[Darren Humphrey]

Here's something every Linux user with $20 can do.
   
  Buy 100 shares of SCOX.
   
  You heard me right.  BUY 100 SHARES OF SCOX.
   
  Why would you do that?  Well SCO is a publicly traded company.  And last time I checked, every Linux user was a member of the public.
   
  According to the NASDAQ website, SCO currently has a market capitalization of $4 million dollars.  That means that if 100,000 Linux users each bought $20 worth of stock, then Linux users would own 50% of the shares of SCO.  
   
  As a shareholder:
  1. they will be forced to send you an annual report
  2. you can pay a fee to have a stock certificate
  3 you can sue the directors if you believe they mismanaged their fiduciary responsibilities to you
  4 you can vote your shares at the next annual meeting
  5.- you can vote to fire Daryl Mc Bride
   
  Just my 20 cents.  Heck I might even be tempted to buy $40 just so my vote will count twice as much.
   
  On a serious note, though since SCOX is going up your $20 investment will likely be worthless.   But on the other hand, it's about the same price as a large pizza.

What a shame. I liked SCO and Darl McBride a lot. They made their money the 
hard way -- they litigated for it.

Oh well, we still have one remaining captain of industry, Microsoft.
