Comment Darl = Comical Ali (Score 1) 463
Someone mentioned already, but when it comes to IP cases (or any type of law suits), anyone involved in the case would cautiously shut their mouth and just say, "see ya in the court" with a big grin. At least that's how lawyers suggest, if not demand, them to do because what they say publicly can be used AGAINST their cases.
Instead Mr. McBride, Sontag and other SCO brasses appear all kinds of media (web, paper, you name it) with no hesitation and vocally explains minutes-to-minutes updates on the IBM case and vaguely mumbles what may happen in the near future to this ex-UNIX-distributer-turned-IP-broker.
Assertiveness and absurdness of Mr. McBride's comments explaining the whole situation of the case reminds me of Iraq information minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf, a.k.a. Comical Ali. At first I thought Mr. McBride's appearance on media was nothing but annoyance, but now I found it entertaining, and as a matter of fact, I can't wait to see more of his absurd comments appearing on media to make good laughs. I personally call Mr. McBride "Comical Darl," after the great information minister, but this can be an insult to the Iraq minister.
