Game Over -- Well, No, Paused
This was the week that Loki Software, Inc., the once-promising Linux games company that came to resemble Enron writ small, was scheduled to disappear beneath the waves forever.

But a trustee's hearing Monday afternoon that would have declared Loki devoid of assets and formally closed the all-but-dead company was continued until April 8 -- because Loki's president, Scott Draeker, didn't show up for the hearing. Draeker's lawyer said he had no idea where Draeker was or how he could be reached. [F'd Company]

...just when I think things are bad, I see this story and think...gee, there is worse, much worse. This is one of those classic bad Linux stories. The companies moto was "Games that Linux People Play." It should have been "Games that Linux users Play, but Don't Pay For!"...mj
