SCO Group, which for years has claimed that Linux infringes on its Unix intellectual property, has received new funding and seems set to continue its battle against the open source operating system.
Microsoft appears to be more deeply involved in SCO's legal battles against Linux than previously reported.
The long-running legal battle over claims that IBM's version of Linux violates SCO Group's intellectual property took another twist on Tuesday when IBM sent subpoenas to four other tech players.
The SCO Group's legal actions against Linux have shed light on the inner workings of the open-source programming project and on the operations of a company desperate to survive. They've also created a cottage industry for conspiracy theorists over Microsoft's role in the affair.
BayStar Capital, the investment fund that arranged a US$50 million cash infusion for the SCO Group, has begun selling its common shares.
Is Microsoft funding the SCO Group's legal fight against Linux? ZDNet hopes to shed some light and answer common questions swirling around the duo's relationship.
Former Ximian chief executive David Patrick, now a general manager at Novell, says the Office productivity suite is the key to breaking Microsoft's hold on the desktop.
Novell's chief executive and chairman Jack Messman says contrary to popular belief his company learnt a lot from its mid-nineties tussle with Microsoft -- and now it's got the Linux community in its corner.
