What would SCO do?

I am currently reading Open Sources and found the following passage in the first chapter:
The Santa Cruz Operation (SCO) has gone from a leading Unix vendor to an afterthought in the span of a couple of years. SCO, the company, will probably find a way to survive, but will its flagship product, SCO Unix, be another casualty of Open Source?
We now of course know what happened to SCO and how they are suing everyone in order to save their business. But reading this perspective from 1999 shows how obvious SCOs demise was even back then.
It should also be noted that this book is part of the amazing O'Reilly Open Book project that offers free downloads of many O'Reilly books. Posted by Can Sar at March 31, 2004 06:30 PM to category Computer Science | TrackBack
