Tragic end

What a sad way to end. SCO were never a very sexy company but they had some rock solid UNIX in their time. Go to any store and peek in the back and I bet you'll find a couple of dusty old SCO boxes humming away quite happily in between the store detective's stash of porno and last week's discount lines. They also participated in the Community, eg Greg Lehey's work to get the source code to pre V7 UNIX put out in the public domain (a decision they probably regretted when time came to sue). What a pointless way to destroy a company. It would be like NetApp suing Sun over NFS. Oh wait.....
