Yes, Lawyers do get theirs

Having been in a company that died in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, I can readly attest that the FIRST priority in handing out the little $$$ that exist at the end are the lawyers. Hopefully the people with real claims will get some benefit from the sale of whatever IP SCO owns. We can also hope that the buyer (hell, I'll bid $.01) will donate the stuff to "public domain" and we will all rest easy at night. Wishful thinking, but sometimes dreams come true.......
