The truth is, it doesn't have to be true or accurate to have a negative
effect on the adoption of Linux by companies.  It only has to cast doubt
in the mind of those managers who make these decisions...and I believe
that's exactly what it's doing.  Furthermore, it may drag out in court,
which will only contribute to this FUD.

While more of a conspiracy theory...it'd make perfect sense to see M$
pulling SCO's strings in this case... ;)  Now, I don't really believe
that, but I'll bet folks at M$ had a party when this news came out...
