Well, the other way to look at it is...

Just how much Posix-compliant code and unix binary compatability was
still in Windows, and if there, how vuilnerable would Microsoft be?

Instead of perusing some 50 million lines of code (and paying the
man-hours for it), why not just reach in your smallest account at your
smallest bank and pay SCO to avoid litigation?


I don't know anything for sure, but I wonder...

So this is it...... Microsoft will finally rule the World. They own
Windows, 
now they will own Unix and with deep pockets they will prove some how
that 
Linux is a violation of Unix IP; thus, eliminating Linux once and for
all.
