Hidden hand?

Am I just being paranoid seeing the hidden M$ agenda in this?

If the case gets fought and SCO win, Linux is dead as far as being an M$ competitor.
If SCO gets bought out by IBM, the UL consortium is seen as compromised.
If IBM wins a quarter of UL is dead.

Whatever happens, the seed has been implanted that says that, after all the posturing, Linux isn't *really* as open source as its proponents claim, and, oh!, the news starts to bite just as Win2003 (or whatever) starts being real.
