  SCO Group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SCO had previously announced that they would deemphasize OpenServer and migrate existing users to their UnixWare platform, but later on they decided to reverse that decision.
Although many are skeptical about their claims, SCO initiated a series of lawsuits and claims that, if upheld by the courts, may impact the future of both Linux and Unix.
On February 17, 2005 the SCO Group issued a press release that stated their stock may soon be delisted from NASDAQ for failing to issue an annual 10-K report in a timely manner as required by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations.

 OSI Position Paper on the SCO-vs.-IBM Complaint
It is notable that the amended complaint differs substantially from the original; SCO had to change its story because some of the falsehoods in the original were too readily exposed.
The principal author did SCO Unix consulting in the early 1990s, configuring systems for a small-town police station and a dental practice; anyone familiar with the industry would recognize that these were entirely typical old SCO deployments.
SCO's claim to have been unique in supporting Unix for PCs is therefore not merely false, it is a deliberate and egregious lie — not rendered less mendacious by the weasel-word ‘primary’ in its complaint.

 I, Cringely . May 29, 2003 - Going for a Streak-Free Finish | PBS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
But it is Unix completely redesigned and rewritten.  I doubt it has very little in common with the original Unix licensed from AT&T however long ago.  I think SCO will have a big challenge finding anything in AIX that bears resemblance to their Unix, much less anything in AIX that may be in Linux.
It doesn't help, either, that one of SCO's own people made a strong argument awhile back against the whole idea that Unix code could make it into the Linux kernel.
If SCO gets any money from IBM, it will be a decade from now, which probably explains the steep drop of SCO's stock on Wednesday even though the company reported good financial results.  The market has already decided that SCO can't win.
