That's because SCO was acquired by Caldera, who was running Linux all along, and then SCO's web stuff was rolled into Caldera's. Now that Caldera has switched it's name back to SCO they just continue running Linux because that's what all their current IT guys have their knowlege in (they laid off almost all of the SCO IT guys).
Has anyone really thought about the fact that IBM probably still has SCO's source code and they've probably done the work by now to find the duplication/similarities of the code? Because IBM has hugely more resources, they've probably already done a better job of identifying the code's origins, etc. I'm betting that IBM has found the code SCO is crying about, identified the code's origins/history, and is going to fight because they see right through SCO's little ploy.
I will laugh and laugh if the code ends up being identified as having been put there by Caldera, or the code never belonged to SCO in the first place.
