What if M$ is behind the SCO thing?....they licensed
the SCO stuff.....and now claim to be protecting any
of thier subscribers (as i understand it) from
litigation.......would it make sense that they claim
to be the good guy by protecting their subscribers and
at the same time are in bed with SCO providing support
for this ploy against Linux ??  would it make sense?
