Well, thats what SCO says ;)

As of (give or take) an hour ago, SCO officially terminated IBM's license to 
sell AIX..

Of course, ask any sane IT guy about this issue and they'll laugh out loud, 
but still, this is the first time I see that a company declares another 
company's product as "illegal" yet I don't know a single sane IT person that 
would switch/erase their server due to this announcment...

Oh, and regarding the money that they got from Microsoft - it's not $30 
million, not $20 million and not even $10 million. According to their 10-Q 
filing (Quaterly report which can be found here - 
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1102542/000110465903012299/j2045_10q.htm 
- warning - very borring stuff!) the money that they got from 2 companies 
from licenses (one is MS and another one which they don't tell who) - is 
total of $8.3 millions - not enough money if they want to fight IBM in court. 
They'll be dead before there will be a ruling...
