That's true. SCO is FUDding and this is exactly their goal since the
start of the SCO vs IBM operation. FUD can slow down (and possibly stop)
the entering of Linux in the enterprise world and the development
and porting of software on Linux. This has been also the result in the
mid-80s for the BSD/AT&T battle. The two companies simply canceled any chances for Unix to win in the market of OSes.

At the end of the story
BSD removed just 3 files and add a copyright note to other 70 ones.
That were a very little contribute in respect with other 18,000.

But now we have MS monopoly as result.

IMHO SCO and MS have simply the same goals in mind.
