The thing that made me laugh was this bit at the end:

"McBride's assault on the "peace and love" Linux movement already has
made SCO the most hated villain in the computer industry. Now he wants
to shake down the people who make cartoons for kids. Happy to play the
heavy, he tells of receiving voice mail recently from an anonymous
caller who challenged him to a fistfight, leaving a callback number, "if
you have the guts." Feeling playful, he had his secretary contact the
irate critic and offer to set an appointment for the clash. The caller
declined."

Yeah... I just wonder if McBride would really go through with something
like this, you know, without suing after he gets his clock cleaned. 

Also kind of shows just how fluffy Forbes' coverage really is...
