I am sure that SCO would immediately declare Linux to be another Unix variation if M$ even starts feelers(Ballmer teases ?) about a MS/Linux.
Talk about cutting off your nose !
I think their team will actually uncover some exploitable weaknesses, which will get fixed, permanently, within time frames so short that the Open Source development process will be vindicated so forcefully that Jesse Burst will declare his undying belief.
After only a few rounds of the "locate something exploitable, create a benchmark to demonstrate it, publish and be awe struck at how fast and well it gets fixed" that the M$ Marketeers will realize that *they* are advancing Linux more rapidly than it would if left alone.
I predict two more rounds after the "Mindcraft Fiasco" and then "Team Linux" will be quietly disbanded in hopes the Marketeers can go back to sleeping at night.
