MS quiet as SCO goes nuclear on Novell
by John Hogan, News Editor

Everyone thought Microsoft's Martin Taylor was going to be the big party-crasher at LinuxWorld this week. As it turned out, Taylor's "get the facts" anti-Linux routine paled in comparison to the SCO Group's bombshell: a big, fat lawsuit against Novell.

You've got to hand it to Darl McBride. SCO's pugnacious chief executive has impeccable timing. Novell, arguably the hottest name among Linux vendors, had just issued a pledge to indemnify customers of its Linux products against potential SCO litigation when McBride's gang sprung its lawsuit. And it happened just before Novell stepped into the warm glow of LinuxWorld. What an insult!
