Basically, SCO is saying IBM put Unix IP into linux which SCO owns and they are trying to get all commercil users of linux to pay a $699 /CPU license fee to use their IP in Linux. Novell says they still own the copyrights to the Unix source code though and told IBM to ignore SCO's order to no longer ship AIX. SCFO sued Novell for slander of title. Redhat sued SCO saying their FUD was harming their business and customers under the Lanham act. SCO is suring Daimler-Chrysler because they did not answer a demand to account for unix licenses they have to did have and that they are not using any Linux. SCO sued Autozone because autozone ported their software to linux from Unix very fast so they had to use unix libraries which they are no longer kallowed to do.
As Linux put it, SCO is like a cornered rat and maybe rabid at that, so he does not want to get around them.
