Just caught wind of this:

It looks like SCO is gearing up to sue everyone using Linux into paying for
Unix licenses, since SCO owns the Unix source code.  If you look at this:
http://www.sco.com/scosource/unixtree/unixhistory01.html, it appears that
SCO and their new attorney David Boies will undoubtedly, eventually, try to
convince the US courts that Linux infringes on SCO's Unix
patents/copyrights/APIs.  (Recall the hanging chad shit in Florida in the
2000 presidential election?  Boies represented Al Gore, and argued for him
in the US Supreme Court.)

If SCO succeeds in this legal game, they'll then pull an RIAA job, and
attempt to force all Linux users to pay licensing fees....

You heard it here first (unless someone mentioned this in one of the 90 some
hlds emails I deleted earlier without reading ;).
