Well I see SCO since it cannot get IBM to buy it now has turned to Novell. I wish they get a life! I worked for AT&T when the deal was ironed out with Novell pertaining to Unix. I also know the conditions of the sale and SCO really needs to read that contract between AT&T and Novell before opening their mouths. I also read the contract when Novell sold Unix to SCO which gave them the right to use and modify Unix but not the copywrite and/or patent. That would have violated the AT&T contract. SCO is so in need of infusion money they now are trying anything to keep afloat. They just received a new loan in the millions but it is only enough to continue legitation but the company should fail unless a miracle happens and the presiding judge is blind to the actual contracts.

I ran a across an excellent article about this conflict here: http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid39_gci934329,00.html
Back in May, when the SCO vs. IBM issue was heating up, Gartner analyst George Weiss advised enterprises to consider their Linux plans with caution. Since then, a couple of more lawsuits have been filed, SCO's received a cash infusion from venture capital firm BayStar Capital, and the dispute's course has only become more murky. In this interview, Weiss offers his take on what's going on with the fight.
