I'm listening to the SCO conference call right now, wherein SCO have
provided some more details to their Linux licensing plan.  They're providing
"protection from litigation" to enterprise Linux users who purchase SCO
Unixware 7.1.3 licenses.  They haven't provided any details on how this works,
but my guess is that you'll need to buy as many CPU licenses as you have
CPUs running on Linux.

Also, for the first time, SCO are aledging that Linux kernels 2.4 and above
are in violation of SCO's UNIX copyrights.
