Microsoft Services for Unix and OpenBSD

    The point is that Microsoft claimed they were buying a SCO license so they could use it for their "Services for Unix", not as a way of bankrolling SCO's efforts to FUD linux.

    This shows that the Services for Unix aren't derived from SCO sources, and therefore MS lied.

    Or something.
