Doesn't IBM know own the rights to the Dynix UNIX variant it got when it
acquired Sequent? Seems to me that IBM has lots and lots of options.

It's also funny to remember that SCO merged with Caldera, which owned a DOS
clone. Caldera sued Microsoft, for making Windows 3 incompatible with their
competing DOS. Western Digitals Data Lifeguard Tools boots some version of
this. The relationship with Microsoft is likely a bit strained.

To answer the question Cynthia asked, no. I'm wondering what plans SCO has
for tracking down all the downloaded ISO images that folk used to install
Linux, and are running now. Anyway, I'm sure that somewhere, I have that
Caldera Linux CD that I got at HP World 2000.
