SCO Extorting Unixware Licenses to Linux Users?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the but-i-don't-want-unixware dept.

An anonymous user noted that SCO will sell you Unixware if you want to "Legitimize" your usage of Linux at your company. If you buy the license, you will be held blameless for your transgressions against SCO! Pricing has yet to be determined for the special licenses, but I suspect that for any value greater than zero, there are going to be a fair number of angry users.

    This is not far from not being a non-duplicated story.

    Because, in their infinite confidence, they haven't told us what the offending code is.
