I like IBMs response to SCOs latest charade:

"Armonk, New York-based IBM, the world's largest computer company, said that 
it is not aware of any Unix V code embedded in Linux. 

"SCO needs to openly show this code before anyone can assess their claim," IBM 
spokeswoman Trink Guarino said. The company has said in the past that the 
suit is baseless. 

Regarding SCO's decision to offer a license to users of Linux -- the 
open-source software that can be copied and modified freely -- Guarino said, 
"SCO seems to be asking customers to pay for a license based on allegations 
and not facts."
