I have been following this for a while.  SCO/Caldera has been in financial
trouble for a while.  They thought they could muscle IBM into buying them out
and get a nice fat retirement for themselves.  IBM called their bluff.  Now
they are trying every trick in the book to keep their stock high so they can
sell and get out before thier bubble pops.  Unfortunatly, this is at the
expense of the Unix/Linux community.  Now that Novell has bought SUSE and 
received copyrights for Unix source of their own, it will get even more
interesting.

Sincerly,
 Robert J. King

... You can pull by Linux from my cold dead fingers.
