Leave poor SCO alone... the poor little lambs (Inquirer)Leave poor SCO alone... the poor little lambs (Inquirer)Posted Feb 8, 2004 19:42 UTC (Sun) by fjf33 (subscriber, #5768)In reply to: Leave poor SCO alone... the poor little lambs (Inquirer) by allesfresser Parent article: Leave poor SCO alone... the poor little lambs (Inquirer) "SCO licensed the Unix operating system to companies like IBM, Sun Microsystems Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Co. after it said that it obtained rights to the license in 1995." I am quoting a quote so keep that in mind. But I think that it was not SCO that licensed IBM SysV but the original AT&T corporation set up to make money out of Unix (I don't remember their name)

Leave poor SCO alone... the poor little lambs (Inquirer) Posted Feb 19, 2004 1:40 UTC (Thu) by roelofs (subscriber, #2599) [Link] But I think that it was not SCO that licensed IBM SysV but the original AT&T corporation set up to make money out of Unix (I don't remember their name)I believe it was Unix System Laboratories (USL), or something close to that. It was purchased by Novell, which in turn sold or licensed parts of it to Caldera/SCOX, which eventually led to this mess. I have no real memory of the dates involved, however. (I thought Novell acquired its rights around 1993, but maybe I'm remembering something else.) Greg
