This is quite old story, but still - it is pretty sad. SCO is trying to
get money from his patents and they own rights for old days know as AT&T
unix. They are not using and developing it anymore anyway, even second
owner of some older Unix branch - novell is moving forwards to
GNU/Linux.
Anyway, if anyone feels not good with that (they will probably attack
RedHat and Suse if won against IBM) - here is SCO feedback page -

Just drop them a note, how do you feel :)
