SCO trial begins
More than four years after filing a lawsuit about alleged misuse of the Unix operating system, the SCO Group will get its days in court, beginning today in Salt Lake City.
The defendant will be Novell, which SCO sued in 2004. SCO also had filed a lawsuit over Unix in 2003 against International Business Machines Corp.
SCO's lawsuit against IBM claims the company had violated an agreement by inserting Unix code into Linux, a free "open source" computer operating system distributed by IBM that competes with proprietary Unix.
