Microsoft Not Underwriting SCO's Legal Fees?

An anonymous reader wrote in to say "Linux Business Week carries this morning a claim that Microsoft only bought a Unix license from SCO Group because there's been a prior development project underway at Redmond that warranted it. "The license was not seen as a way to underwrite SCO's legal fees," says a source within the company. "The idea of getting a SCO license had been under consideration prior to the IBM lawsuit." "

He's right! SCO ARE just in it for the money. Linus would remove the offending code in a flash if they just disclosed the code. But they wont PURLEY because they want TO EXTORT from people. Some companies are underhandedly evil and will destroy the world for profit.
