"Since the year 2001 commercial Linux customers have been purchasing and receiving software that includes misappropriated UNIX software owned by SCO," said Chris Sontag, senior vice president and general manager, SCOsource intellectual property division, The SCO Group. "While using pirated software is copyright infringement, our first choice in helping Linux customers is to give them an option that will not disrupt their IT infrastructures. We intend to provide them with choices to help them run Linux in a legal and fully-paid for way."

All sorts of things just might happen - the place might burn down, you might get a case of broken kneecaps, or lawyers might appear at your door. It could ruin you! You just never know, do you? But me and my buddies here can help you with this. Understand? All you gotta do is buy our "insurance," see? I mean, the choice is yours, of course. But we will be back.
SCO offers UnixWare licenses for Linux Posted Jul 21, 2003 17:58 UTC (Mon) by tjc (guest, #137) [Link] Just when I thought that SCO couldn't go much lower.Or in the long run, do more for the Linux community. Assuming that SCO does badly in court, they will have effectively rendered Linux FUD-proof for the near to mid-term future. It won't matter what anyone says that might cast doubt on the legal standing of Linux, the response will be "SCO already tried that and lost." PS. I hope this post looks OK; I'm posting from a sub-standard system.
