    In an almost comical turn of events, IBM is charging that SCO cannot
    claim bits of the Linux operating system are proprietary since SCO
    once sold a version of Linux under the GPL. IBM is also looking to
    secure its own IP by charging that SCO has infringed on four Big
    Blue patents. Last but not least, IBM claims that SCO disrupted
    IBM's server business by terminating its AIX license.

Took their time in taking action.. but it sounds like it was worth it :)
