Here's an idea, maybe Linus can sue SCO for misuse of a registered trademark... None of their releases have given proper credit to Linus for the Linux REGISTERED name.

He also is afraid that there is a "...greater focus on doing more with less" in business, which could spell trouble for Microsoft.
