Q&A: SCO's Chris Sontag on Linux, Unix and brewing legal fights

This is kind of getting scary. Obviously SCO are very serious about their claims, althouhg they have yet to present evidence.

"In two weeks, The SCO Group Inc. intends to begin showing analysts where the Unix code it owns has been illegally copied into the Linux kernel. The source code will be made available to parties who agree not to disclose the Unix source code, but they will be able to share publicly their assessments of SCO's claim. SCO has filed a $1 billion lawsuit against IBM alleging misappropriation of trade secrets and other claims and has warned some 1,500 businesses that they may be using Linux at their legal peril."
